Crowd watches as goons kill man on street

Wednesday July 13, 2011 04:04:44 PM, IANS

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.
