The incident took place on Friday in Bhakharpura village of Gudha Malani area, when Shravan Kumar, a Dalit man, was released on bail in a separate theft case.

In a statement, Barmer Superintendent of Police (SP) Narendra Singh Meena said Kumar was arrested after he was found stealing a bike at a local fair on December 29.
