Patiala: Gau Raksha Dal chief Satish Kumar was arrested from Vrindavan after being booked on charges of sodomy, rioting and extortion among others. The case was lodged on 6 August two years after a video went viral showing Gau Raksha Dal members brutally thrashing people. “Now another Uttar Pradesh resident has told investigators that he was sodomised by Satish,” the sources said. Another victim had told the police last week that he was detained by the self-styled cow vigilantes, robbed and tortured. The Gau Raksha Dal allegedly used to post videos online of attacks on trucks “carrying cattle for slaughter”, showing drivers being thrashed and vehicles torched.
