An eerie silence surrounds the dead bodies of Junaid and Nasir, even as a crowd of a few hundred villagers stands in an open ground next to the room where the corpses have been kept since being brought home to Rajasthan’s Ghatmeeka village in Bharatpur district, late on Thursday.
But just a few meters away are the homes of Junaid and Nasir, which are replete with sounds of wailing women, inconsolable as they remember the two men.
Junaid and Nasir were allegedly killed by members of the Bajrang Dal as their vehicle was set on fire in Haryana’s Bhiwani, and their bodies reduced to bones.
Junaid, 32, was a labourer in the village and the father of 6 children, the eldest being 12 and the youngest just 6 months old.
