Days after being beaten up by some people here, a 42-year-old farmer succumbed during treatment at a hospital in Rajasthan’s Kota, police said on Wednesday.

The deceased has been identified as Ramvilas Meena, a resident of Bamboli village, they said.

According to police, Ramvilas had a scuffle with Raghuraj of his village over some issue on Sunday evening, DSP Rajulal Meena said.

Later at night, Raghuraj, along with Bhem Singh and three others, attacked Ramvilas with iron rods and sticks and fled away from the spot, he said.
