A soldier of India’s Border Security Force was beaten to death in Gujarat's Nadiad after he protested against the circulation of an obscene video of his daughter. A police case has been filed and seven people have been arrested, reported Indian media.
The man had gone to the home of the 15-year-old who allegedly posted the video online, in Chaklasi village where he was attacked by the family.
The teen is a student of the school the girl attended and the two were in a relationship but he had posted an obscene video of the girl online after which the BSF jawan, with his family, had gone to speak to the boy's family.
The First Information Report filed by the police said the jawan, with his wife, two sons and nephew, had gone to the teen's house. But members of his family started abusing them. When he objected to that, the group attacked his family, reads a rough translation of the FIR.

At least seven people were arrested for allegedly beating the BSF soldier to death.
BSF soldier Meljibhai Vaghela was lynched on 24 December. The 45-year-old soldier, along with his wife and their sons went to the house of the suspect, identified as Sunil Jadav, who allegedly uploaded videos, said the first information report, which is the first step towards the start of a police investigation.
The police complaint said the soldier was attacked by one of the suspect’s kin on the head with a wooden stick, while another family member used a sickle. The women of the family subsequently began assaulting the soldier as well, it said.
The border force in a statement said Mr Vaghela was a head constable in the 56th battalion of the force and was on leave when the incident took place. Soon after the incident, the BSF said it had reached out to the family and gotten in touch with Gujarat’s police.
“BSF and state police are working in tandem and fully committed to bring facts to the fore and ensure justice to the demised BSF trooper and his family,” it said in a statement.
“BSF is in constant touch with the family members of the deceased jawan and is providing all help to them including the release of immediate financial assistance and proper medical treatment.”
At least seven members of the suspect’s family have been charged with murder, attempt to murder, rioting and other offenses under India’s criminal code.
