Junior doctors and students of Kolkata's Nil Ratan Sircar Medical College and Hospital beatem a man to death for allegedly stealing cell-phone.
The 28-year-old man was suspected of committing a theft within the hostel premises of the medical college after some cell phones, laptops and other valuables started going missing on frequent occasions.
