Mob attacks two men transporting cows near Noida
[The Hindu] Two contract workers were attacked by alleged right-wing goons while transporting cows in Jewar here on Thursday.

The victims were identified as Jaibeer Singh (33) and Bhoop Singh (45), residents of Sirsa Manjhipur.

The incident happened when the duo was returning from Mehndipur after buying a cow and a calf. They got tired on the way and sat down under a tree.

"Some people spotted them and suspected them to be Moslems. They called some more people, who attacked them without any questions," said Mr. Jaibeer Singh’s cousin, Fateh Singh.

He added that the accused kept thrashing the two even though they told them that they were Hindus and were transporting the animals for personal use. Both the victims received internal injuries and fractures in shoulder and ribs.

Locals informed their families about the incident, after which they approached the police.

"The police lodged an FIR into the matter only after a lot of pressure," Mr. Fateh Singh alleged.

Jewar cop shoppe in-charge Ajay Kumar Sharma said an FIR had been registered against Mahesh, Ashish, Ompal and five others under Sections 147, 323, 504 and 506 of the IPC.

"The accused fled from the spot after the incident. We are looking for them," he said.

Meanwhile,
...back at the dirigible, the pilot and the copilot had both hit the silk.

Jack! Cynthia exclaimed. Do you know how to drive one of these things?

Jack wiped some of the blood from his knuckles.

No, he said. Do you?...

the incident has triggered tension in the area. Locals have demanded stringent action against right-wing goons for beating innocent people in the name of cow protection.

Gautam Budh Nagar Senior Superintendent of Police and District Magistrate have ordered the police personnel concerned to pacify the people and arrest the accused soon.
