Coimbatore: Police
have arrested four men who tripped a man driving a motorcycle on a
busy street here and murdered him as dozens of people watched in
horror.
The daylight brutality Sunday was caught on a close circuit
television camera mounted on a traffic junction in this Tamil Nadu
city.
The video showed two men standing on the road and deliberately
coming in the way of a motorcyclist who lost balance and fell on
the road.
In no time, two others joined them and they together assaulted the
victim. One man was seen to be stabbing him while a second
attacker hurled a heavy rock on his head.
Coimbatore's Deputy Commissioner of Police S. Nijamuddin hit out
at those who watched the gory killing but did not intervene.
"The people there should have tried to stop (the killers)," the
officer told CNN-IBN news channel.
He said compared to the four killers, there were many more
motorists and pedestrians, who watched the crime but did nothing.
"It is a sorry state that none came forward to help the boy (who
died)."
He said it was only when the police reached the scene that an
ambulance was summoned and the victim taken to a hospital. But he
had already died.
Police said the attackers and the victim had earlier apparently
had a brawl at a wine shop. This led to the murder.
