JAIPUR/ALWAR: A local court in Rajasthan's Alwar on Wednesday acquitted all the six accused in Pehlu Khan lynching case. The court of additional district judge first (ADJ) had completed the final trial proceedings on August 7 and reserved the case for judgment on Wednesday. Proceedings in the court had been going on regularly after the apex court shifted the trial from Behror to Alwar. Pehlu Khan, 55, his two sons and a few others were transporting cows from Jaipur when they were intercepted and thrashed by cow vigilantes near Behror on April 1, 2017. Pehlu died on April 4 in a hospital. The Behror police station had registered seven FIRs in the matter — one for Khan’s murder and six for “illegal transport of bovines” as, the police say, six vehicles had been in use in the alleged crime. The trial had been completed in Khan’s murder case, while the remaining six cases are at different stages of investigations and trials. A chargesheet in Khan’s lynching was submitted before the court against Vipin, Ravindra, Kalu Ram, Daya Nand and Yogesh Kumar on May 31, 2017.
