Pehlu Khan, a 55-year-old dairy farmer, and his sons were beaten up in April 2017 by a mob of self-styled cow vigilantes on allegations of smuggling cattle. Khan and his son were transporting cows after purchasing them at a cattle fair in Jaipur, to their hometown Nuh, Haryana. The mob stopped them near Behror on the Jaipur-Delhi national highway. Khan had succumbed to injuries in a hospital two days after the incident.
