Lalitpur, Uttar Pradesh: In another case of atrocities on Dalits in Uttar Pradesh that came to light on Monday, a 65-year-old man was allegedly forced to drink urine and beaten up, along with his son, in Lalitpur district last week.

Following a complaint by the victim's family, the main accused has been arrested, while the search for others involved in the case is on, said police.

Victim Amar, a resident of Roda village in Lalitpur, told ANI one Sonu Yadav forced him to drink his urine a few days ago. "When I refused, he attacked me with a stick. He also attacked my son with an axe. We then complained against him to the police," Amar said.
