The protest temporarily blocked traffic on the Parli-Beed road until intervention by police and district administration officials. On May 16, 18-year-old Shivraj Diwate was reportedly abducted and severely beaten by about 20 people over minor disputes near Parli. Police registered cases of attempted murder, rioting, and kidnapping. Seven of the 20 suspects were arrested and remanded in police custody until May 20. On Sunday, a new video surfaced showing one of the accused being assaulted by people claiming to be Diwate's friends. This incident allegedly occurred before Diwate's attack. Parli police said they would analyse the video footage as part of their investigation. Diwate, currently receiving treatment at govt hospital in Ambajogai, was visited by Parli NCP MLA Dhananjay Munde, Beed NCP MP Bajrang Sonawane, as well as Maratha reservation activist Manoj Jarange, among others. Talking to reporters, Munde said Diwate was like family and sought a thorough police investigation. "The Beed SP has already said there is no caste angle to the assault. There is a need for a thorough probe to find out the reasons behind the attack on Diwate," he said. Sonawane, after visiting Diwate, criticised Munde indirectly. "The recent gruesome violence in Parli is the outcome of the rule of goons in Parli for the past three decades. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Police must nab all the accused and ensure stringent punishment," he said. Ashti BJP MLA Suresh Dhas said the "B gang" of Valmik Karad, the primary accused in the Dec 9 murder of Massajog sarpanch Santosh Deshmukh, remained active in Beed district. "I have come across photos of some of Diwate's attackers with Valmik Karad. It was a very inhuman attack on him. Police must invoke MCOCA against all accused," Dhas told reporters.

Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: An 18-year-old youth from Parli was allegedly abducted and violently attacked by 20 people on Friday evening over petty issues. Beed superintendent of police Navneet Kanawat confirmed that 20 people had been charged, with seven already in custody. While returning from a religious gathering at Jalapur, Shivraj Diwate , who resides in Limbote village near Parli, was pursued by the assailants. According to police, the attackers, travelling on two-wheelers, intercepted Diwate and his friend who were on a motorbike. They gagged Diwate and took him to a nearby hill. In a now-viral video, Diwate can be seen being severely beaten with belts and wooden sticks. The viral footage of the assault brought back disturbing memories of Masajog sarpanch Santosh Deshmukh's murder on Dec 9 last year. "The assault stemmed from trivial matters and involved people of different castes. We have imposed serious charges against the perpetrators," Kanawat said. The SP dismissed any caste-related motivations and urged Beed district residents to disregard rumours about the incident. Currently receiving treatment at Ambajogai government hospital, Diwate told reporters that two passers-by witnessed his assault and raised an alarm, enabling his escape. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Want Lower Bills Without Changing a Thing? elecTrick - Save upto 80% on Power Bill Learn More Undo "There was some quarrel at Jalalpur during the religious event, and I had only observed it.
