A migrant worker from Madhya Pradesh was brutally attacked with machetes by four minors in Tamil Nadu’s Thiruvallur district, leaving him critically injured. The incident, which was recorded on a mobile phone by the attackers themselves, has sparked outrage after the video surfaced and went viral on social media.
The videos also showed one of the attackers flashing a victory sign after the assault.
The victim, identified as Siraj, was first targeted while travelling on a moving train. The accused minors allegedly threatened him with machetes during the journey, even as they recorded a video. What began as intimidation soon escalated into a violent assault.
Siraj was later taken by the group to a secluded spot near a railway station, where he was repeatedly attacked with machetes. The assault was filmed on a phone camera, capturing the brutality of the act.
