India: Police Arrest Three For Killing Man Over Beef

Indian Police have arrested three men in eastern Bihar in connection with the death of a Muslim man.

The man was attacked because he was suspected of carrying beef, a police official said.

The police said, the victim, Naseem Qureshi, died earlier this week after being attacked by a mob on suspicion of carrying beef, the sale and consumption of which is restricted in some parts of the country.

Qureshi was allegedly surrounded by more than 20 people and attacked, according to a police statement in court.

The police intervened but he died on the way to the hospital.

Cows are sacred in Hinduism, and there have been frequent attacks on those accused of killing.

Some Hindu's have taken to enforcing the law themselves by attacking people.
