According to TOI, The incident occurred in Lalpur village, part of the tribal-dominated Dindori district, during a confrontation over a long-standing land dispute. On Thursday afternoon, a father and his three sons were attacked by a mob while trying to reclaim their land, which had been awarded to them through a court ruling in 2018. Tragically, the father and one son died at the scene, while another son, Shivraj, was rushed to Gadasarai Health Centre but succumbed to his injuries.

Dr Chandrashekar Tekam of the health centre clarified that Roshni was not specifically instructed to clean but was collecting blood-soaked clothes to gather evidence. reported TOI
