A 30-year-old man who went missing during communal clashes in Madhya Pradesh's Khargone city has become the first fatality of violence, but his death has raised allegations of cover-up, with the kin of the deceased accusing the police of keeping his death under wraps for eight days.
The body of Ibresh Khan was kept at a government hospital in Indore for eight days after it was found in Khargone's Anand Nagar area as the freezer facility was not available in Khargone, police said on Monday.
A police officer said that Ibresh died due to serious injuries to his head caused by stones.
