A Hindu extremist has killed a Muslim man in the Rajasthan area of India after accusing him of doing “love jihad”.
The term “Love Jihad” is used by right wing groups in India to refer a conspiracy to turn Hindu women from their religion by seducing them.
Hindu man, identified as Shambhu Lal, set the victim’s body on fire after killing him with an axe.
The stomach-turning video of the brutal incident has gone viral on the social media.
In the video, the murderer warned Muslims saying: “This will happen to you if you do ‘love jihad’ in our country.”
