A footage, in which a man can be seen urinating on another man, a tribal youth, surfaced online on the evening of July 4.
While the incident took place in the past, the accused, Pravesh Shukla, was booked on Tuesday under the stringent National Security Act and relevant provisions of the Indian Penal Code and the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 after the video went viral and Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan took cognisance of it.
What caused Mr. Shukla to mete out the humiliating treatment to the victim (name withheld) is unclear.
