Madhya Pradesh police ‘parade’ cow slaughter accused in Ujjain Ujjain Superintendent of Police confirms the arrests but denies having any information about the alleged parading of the accused.

Two men were beaten up and ‘paraded’ in public in broad daylight after they were arrested in Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain on charges of cow slaughter on Monday (March 3, 2025).In purported videos that surfaced online, the men are seen walking on a road accompanied by some police personnel, with one of them hitting the men with a baton. The men, as shown in the videos, can also be seen raising chants like “gaay hamari mata hai (cow is our mother)”.

Ujjain Superintendent of Police Pradeep Sharma confirmed the arrests to The Hindu but denied having any information about the alleged parading of the accused. “I am not aware of the parading but we will check the details,” he said.The incident took place in Ghatia police station area.Another video also showed a group of right wing activists felicitating Ghatia police station in-charge and other officers by garlanding them inside the police station.

Vinod Sharma, Vishwa Hindu Parishad’s Malwa prant mantri, told The Hindu that some local workers of the VHP and Bajrang Dal had gone to the police station to offer their respect for the police personnel.“We don’t usually felicitate in public but these officers had done a commendable job by catching these infamous men who have been involved in cow slaughter and smuggling in the area. The way of punishing may vary but if the cops have done a good job, we should thank them,” he said.

Additional SP Guruprasad Parasar, however, downplayed the incident and said that it was “not such a serious matter”.“Police did not beat them up like it is being shown. Someone may have hit them once or twice. Someone took the video and the local media portrayed the matter this way,” he said.He said that the information was received about cow slaughter about 10 days ago and a case was filed.“Some people had seen them when they were tying a cow and tried to catch them but they escaped taking the advantage of dark,” he said.
