The accused, identified as Mukhtiar and Rijwan of Nuh area in Mewat district, were beaten up and later forced to eat cow dung near the Badarpur border on the KMP expressway on June 10.

The vigilantes shot the video and handed over the accused to Faridabad police. The duo was sent to judicial custody and the police said the seized meat was beef.

Gurugram Gau Rakshan Dal president Dharmendra Yadav said they were tipped off that some people were smuggling beef from Mewat to Delhi and UP via KMP eway.

“We chased a car and caught two accused red-handed with about 700 kgs beef. Our members beat the accused as they retaliated on checking of vehicle. We made them eat cow dung to teach a lesson” Yadav told HT.
