Three men were arrested and their homes demolished in Bhopal on June 19 after they were slapped with the stringent National Security Act (NSA) for allegedly assaulting and attempting to convert the religion of a young man.
In a video of the alleged assault, which took place on May 9 and surfaced online on Monday, the victim can be seen forced to get down on all fours with a belt-like object around his neck and asked to behave like a dog.
Taking cognisance of the video, Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra described it as a condemnable act and directed the Bhopal Police Commissioner to probe the matter and take legal action within the next 24 hours.
