A mentally challenged man was killed in a Jharkhand village after he hacked two men to death in a fit of rage, police said on Monday.
Roshan Oraon, 23, and Shiva Oraon, 50, approached Suka Birsa, 50, at his home in Nagra village, 40 kilometres from here, late on Sunday to complain about his animals entering their field and grazing on their crops.
Birsa, who was receiving treatment from a hospital for the mentally challenged, became enraged. He attacked the Oraons with an axe and hacked both to death.
As news of the murders spread, villagers caught hold of Birsa and beat him to death, a Mandar police station officer said. No arrests have been made yet.
