Dadri in UP tense after lab report says it was beef : prohibitory orders

Dadri, Uttar Pradesh, June 6 (IBNS) : Prohibitory orders have been clamped in Dadri, an Uttar Pradesh village where a man was lynched last year over, as high tension prevailed in the area following reports that the sample test proved that the meat he ate was beef.
Reports said prohibitory orders under section 144 Cr PC have been enforced after hundreds of villagers demanded a police case against the relatives of Mohammad Akhlaq, the deceased, for cow slaughter.
 
The villagers demanded that a 'Mahapanchyat' or a village court be held to decide on the move to be taken against Akhlaq's family for cow slaughter, which is prohibited in Uttar Pradesh. However, possession of beef is not forbidden.
 
Last year, on September 28 a mob forced their way into Akhlaq's home, beat the 56-year-old to death, and dragged his body out onto the street. Last week, a lab report said that meat collected from the scene of the crime had been established as that of "cow or its progeny".

The report, however, contradicted an earlier document which stated the sample was of mutton.

Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has questioned the authority of the new report submitted by the police in court.
