A WOMAN was stripped naked, beaten and paraded through the streets of India by dozens of thugs who accused her of killing a man.
Horrifying footage shows the fearful woman wearing nothing but a black bandage around her arm, as she walks through the Bhojpur district.
The group of men can be seen taking it in turns to strike her, shove her and even throw stones at her.
One man who appears to lead the mob, shouts over their chants in an apparent bid to give everyone a chance to hit her.
Others laughed and cheered, filming the incident and sending it to their friends on Whatsapp.
Police said the group dragged the woman from her home on Monday after the body of Vimlesh Shah, 19, was found.
She is said to live in a red light district close to the railway where Shah's body was discovered.
The mob also set fire to local shops, houses and vehicles in the area.
Officers arrested 15 men for the assault.
She is now being treated in a local hospital, BBC Hindi reported.
