The incident triggered a chain of protests
across the country, with prominent writers, film-makers and scientists
returning their awards After 52-year-old Ikhlaq was beaten to death and his son
severely assaulted on September 29 by a mob in his village which accused him of
eating beef. The chargesheet in the case filed
last week by the UP police named 15 people, including Vishal Rana, the son of a
local BJP leader. A report filed by a veterinary officer with the Uttar Pradesh
government has revealed that the meat found in Dadri lynching victim Mohammad
Ikhlaq’s house was not from a cow but from a goat, reports said on Monday. Reports
also said samples of the meat, which was found in Ikhlaq’s refrigerator, have
been sent to the forensic laboratory in Mathura for final analysis. Prima facie
it seems that the meat found in Dadri lynching victim’s house belongs to goat
progeny,” quoted the UP officer as saying in his report.
