"How cruel was he? How many times did he hold his feet and begged for mercy? But he still wasn’t let go," mourns Gulbahar Bibi, Afrazul Khan’s widow. She breaks down while attempting to recollect and narrate the horrors her husband had to deal with on December 6, 2017. Afrazul Khan from Malda was hacked and burnt to death in Rajsamand, Rajasthan allegedly by Shambhu Lal Regar. A purported video of his gruesome murder had gone viral on the internet.
