Roshan Khatoon was seriously injured on February 28 after a violent incident in Amhi village in Ghoghardiha, located in Madhubani district of Bihar. She had reportedly gone to meet the village head to resolve a dispute when the attack occurred.

According to local reports, Khatoon was allegedly tied to a pole and beaten by a group of people led by Manu Singh, the son of the village head. Eyewitnesses claimed the attackers abused her and forced her to drink a mixture of alcohol and urine when she asked for water while observing a Ramadan fast.

Khatoon was taken to Patna Medical College and Hospital for treatment but died the following day due to her injuries. The incident has triggered anger among community members and human rights advocates.

Police officials said the investigation is ongoing and all claims are being carefully examined. One officer noted that reports about Khatoon fasting and asking for water are still being verified. “We are examining every detail of the case. No one involved will be spared under the law,” the officer said.

Authorities have also indicated that further arrests may take place as investigators gather more evidence related to the attack.
