According to Chandan, he had gone to a shop at Pakija More on Saturday night. When he went behind the shop to urinate, he found 5 people drinking and consuming beef. This led to a heated argument between the victim and the accused, following which they forced him to consume alcohol and eat beef. Chandan managed to escape but was later chased down by the accused men. He was then stripped naked and thrashed brutally.
“Five persons, including Mithun Sheikh, did not like my presence over there and started abusing me badly and forcing me to consume alcohol and beef. When I refused and escaped, they chased me on bikes and thrashed me badly after stripping me naked,” he alleged.

He has been thrashed badly but we are still to establish whether it was beef or something else,” said the officer in charge of Radhanagar police station Rakesh Kumar
The case is still under investigation, he added.
