Mysuru: Accusing a youth, working as a construction labourer of stealing a mobile phone, a supervisor has thrashed the youth after tying him upside down to a beam at the under-construction building near RTO Circle on Vani Vilas Road here yesterday.
It is learnt that the supervisor, who accused the 24-year-old youth of stealing a mobile phone about two days ago, tied him upside down to the beam of the under-construction building and thrashed him severely besides torturing him.
