According to sub divisional officer of police (SDOP-Bamori) Vivek Asthana, the incident happened in Ganeshpura village. “Ramswaroop Dhakad had a dispute with Kanhaiya Nagar—a relative of Mahendra Nagar—over six bighas of land in adjoining Rajasthan. On Sunday afternoon, Kanhaiya and 13-14 people, including few women, attacked Ramswaroop with sticks, and then he was allegedly run over with an MUV. His two daughters, aged 16 and 17 years old, too were assaulted. All of them were brought to the Guna district hospital, but doctors couldn’t save Ramswaroop.”
