Woman, nephew arrested for cow slaughter
A woman and her nephew were arrested by the Nuh police for their involvement in cow slaughtering in Khanpur Ghati village. The woman’s husband, however, managed to escape during the raid.
The accused, identified as Ruksina (wife of Attaullah) and her nephew Asfaq, were found slaughtering a cow and packing the beef in polythene for distribution in surrounding areas. The police recovered 180 kg of fresh beef, an axe, a bike, two sickles, a UPI scanner, an electronic fork, and other items from the spot.
Following a tip-off, the police raided Attaullah’s house in Khanpur Ghati, accompanied by the village sarpanch. On arrival, the police found the three accused chopping the cow into pieces. As the officers attempted to arrest them, the accused fled, but Ruksina and Asfaq were caught. Attaullah, however, escaped by scaling a wall.
An FIR has been registered at the Pinangwa police station, and both Ruksina and Asfaq were produced in court before being sent to judicial custody. “We are conducting further raids to apprehend Attaullah, and he will be arrested soon,” said Inspector Subhash Chand, SHO of Pinangwa police station.
