A video clip on Saturday surfaced on TV channels and social media purportedly showing a man hung upside down and being gruesomely beaten to death by three men.

The video shows a man, identified as Ram Singh, a worker at a private factory in Amritsar, getting thrashed with iron rod by the trio, taking turns to hit the victim.

According to his wife, Ram Singh was allegedly kidnapped on Wednesday by a man and two of his accomplices from his house in an SUV and taken to an isolated place where he was beaten to death, the police said.

The police have booked the accused who has been identified as Jaspreet Singh under section of 302 of the IPC, police said in Amritsar, adding that no arrest so far has been made in the case.

Ram Singh, a native of Nepal, had been living with his wife in the city for the last 14 years.
