PTI | 10:09 PM,Sep 22,2011

Bhopal, Sep 22 (PTI) A dalit farmer, who was allegedly set ablaze by
two property brokers following a dispute over payment of sale of his
land, succumbed to injuries at the Government Hamidia Hospital here
today, police said. Sumer Singh Ahirwar, of village Barkheda Baramad
in Berasia tehsil, had entered into agreement with two brokers for
selling his five-acre land sometime ago. When Ahirwar demanded balance
consideration amount for sale, they initially avoided him. As he kept
pressing for the full payment, yesterday the brokers and their aides
picked him up from Karond, and after a heated exchange, set him on
fire, police said. Police have not disclosed the names of the accused
yet. The Leader of Opposition in Madhya Pradesh Assembly, Ajay Singh,
and state Congress president, Kantilal Bhuria, visited the hospital
today and demanded immediate arrest of the accused.
