The gruesome incident took place on Thursday, 22 February, when a group of at least 15 people allegedly approached the victim, identified as A Madhu, who was suspected to be mentally unstable, and accused him of stealing valuables from a local person's house. The mob reportedly beat him severely with sticks before handing him over to police.
However, the 30-year-old man succumbed to his injuries and died inside a police jeep as he was being taken to a Government Tribal Specialty Hospital, The News Minute reported.
Attempt-to-murder cases have been registered against 15 people and after getting the post-mortem report more charges will be framed against the accused, police said. Reports said that some people have been taken into custody.
