Ludhiana: A youth was brutally thrashed and killed by seven men after he tried to save his friend's sister from molesters in Ram Nagar area here, police said Friday. The deceased, Dharmaraj (25), worked at a hosiery factory in Ludhiana.

According to a complaint filed by his father, accused Inderjit on September 17 had allegedly molested the sister of Dharmaraj's friend following which they both involved into a fight.
