Incident/policy context. Original factual graphic; read the report for attribution and the full account.
On 14 November, Alwar police announced the arrests of Bhagwan Singh Gurjar and Ramveer Gurjar in the murder investigation. Superintendent Rahul Prakash said police were pursuing other suspects; arrests were not findings of guilt.
Documented milestone. This historical record does not establish the current final outcome.
Police separately registered a cattle-smuggling case against Khan and his companions. That allegation did not establish that they committed an offence or justify the fatal attack. The family’s account identified suspected vigilantes, while police described their inquiry as a murder case.
