According to reports, the village head, Ramdin Gautam, attacked the man named Vidhesi Prasad with slaps, a rod, and a stick. A large crowd gathered at the spot, but no one dared to stop the assault due to fear of the pradhan.
The victim’s wife, Nirmala Devi, who works as an ASHA worker, said that her husband works outside the village and sends money home. He used to send the money to his elder brother Rekha Prasad’s bank account. When Vidhesi returned home, he found out that all the money had been given to the village head by his brother.
