Gujarat: Dalit man killed for riding horse, 3 held

Bhavnagar (Gujarat) [India], Mar. 31 (ANI): Three people were detained on Friday night after a 21-year-old Dalit man was allegedly killed for riding a horse in Gujarat's Bhavnagar district.

The deceased identified as Pradeep Rathod, was objected and threatened by some of his co-villagers to not ride the horse a few days back.

"Pradeep had intended to sell the horse following the threats but I had convinced him of not doing so.
