Kolkata: A 38-year-old taxi driver named Jayanta Sen died on Friday after he was reportedly beaten by five men over a parking argument that happened earlier in the week. Police say no arrests have been made yet.
Jayanta was returning home from work around 10:30 PM on Tuesday when he accidentally hit a parked motorcycle. Later that night, five young men came to his house, called him outside, and attacked him. Despite attempts from his mother, brother, and wife to help him, they couldn’t stop the violence. “They beat him badly. Doctors said he had serious injuries in his stomach. We rushed him to the hospital, but he died on Friday. We want those responsible to face justice,” said Prasanta Sen, Jayanta’s brother.
The police have opened an investigation for a serious crime that isn’t classified as murder but involves causing death. “We have filed a report based on what his brother told us. We are looking at security camera footage from the area,” said a police officer.
