Sagar man beaten to death with iron pipe in Madhya Pradesh

A 28-year-old man, identified as Ankit Patel, was allegedly beaten to death with an iron pipe in the Makronia area of Sagar, Madhya Pradesh. The violent incident occurred on a Sunday afternoon near the Paradise Hotel.

CCTV footage of the attack shows the suspect delivering 14 blows to the victim's head within a span of approximately 16 seconds. The assault caused widespread panic among bystanders, some of whom attempted to intervene while others fled the scene. One individual reportedly managed to pull the attacker away from the victim before the suspect fled.

Police arrived at the scene and transported Patel to a nearby hospital, where doctors declared him dead on arrival. Sagar SP Anurag Sujania noted that the victim and the suspect were involved in an old dispute. Authorities have seized the CCTV footage as evidence and are currently searching for the suspect.
