In the video it could be seen that while the victim is lying on the road, the accused it literally sitting on his back, and is seen grabbing the neck of the victim while mercilessly slitting his neck with a sharp object. In the frame, a youth who appears to be passer by riding a bike, is seen observing the crime taking place in a state of shock and later he is seen leaving the place.
The video was posted by X user @himanshupatelrs who said in his post, "The video is from Baradari police station area of Bareilly. Criminals in Bareilly have no fear of the police administration. Criminal fearlessly cuts the neck of a young man. Criminals rule the roost in Bareilly."
The video has naturally sent shock waves across the city of Bareilly with serious questions being raised over the law and order situation in the state of Uttar Pradesh. The video could not be immediately confirmed. Police investigation is underway.
