KOTA: Two brothers and three others were crushed to death under the wheels of a dumper over a yet-to-be-known dispute in a village under Pagaria police station in Jhalawar district on late Saturday night.
Two accused individuals in the matter fled the scene after the crime and are yet to be traced. The five deceased were identified as Bharat Singh (22), his brother Dhiraj Singh (20), and the other three, Tufan Singh (33), Goverdhan Singh (28), and Balu Singh (20), all residents of Binnayga Fanta village under Pagaria police station in Jhalawar district.
A dispute allegedly erupted between Ranjeet Singh, Dunger Singh (both around 20-22 years old) of the same village, and the deceased Bharat Singh and others late Saturday night at around 11 pm, SHO at Pagaria police station, Vijendra Singh, told TOI on Sunday morning.
The reason behind the dispute was yet to be ascertained, but when the dispute did not resolve, Bharat Singh, his brother Dhiraj Singh, and three others on two separate bikes left for Pagaria police station to lodge a case against the two – Ranjeet and Dunger Singh.
The five individuals on two bikes could hardly move half a kilometer in the village when the two accused, Ranjeet and Dunger Singh, got into a dumper parked nearby and started it.
They drove it speedily after the two bikes and ran over the wheels over them, killing four of the five on the spot, while the fifth one died on the way to the hospital, the SHO said.
The two accused fled from the spot, leaving the dumper stationary, he added. The two accused, Ranjeet and Dunger Singh, were reportedly drivers, while the owner of the dumper was reportedly someone else in the village, he said.
The reason behind the dispute was yet to be ascertained; however, it was learned initially that there was no major enmity or rivalry between the deceased and the two accused, the circle officer of the area, DSP Prem Kumar, said.
The two accused were yet to be traced and nabbed, and only after interrogation with them, the motive behind the brutal murder would be clear, he added. The police lodged a case of murder under section 302 of IPC against Ranjeet Singh and Dunger Singh, and attempts are underway to nab the two accused, SHO Vijendra Singh told.
The postmortem on each of the five bodies is underway on Sunday morning, he added. Among the five deceased, two were real brothers, and all of them were daily wage laborers, the SHO said.
