Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot announces an out-of-turn promotion to five policemen, namely Tejpal, Narendra, Shaukat, Vikas and Gautam, who made quick arrests of the accused involved in the Udaipur incident.

The body of Kanhaiya Lal, the tailor who was brutally murdered by two men in Udaipur, was handed over to family members after postmortem on Wednesday, officials said.

Lal's funeral procession started from his house amid tight security arrangements in the presence of hundreds of locals. Leader of opposition Gulab Chand Kataria also visited Lal's house.

Lal was on Tuesday beheaded by two men who had posted videos online that said they were avenging an insult to Islam.

The Shahi Imam of Jama Masjid, Delhi, issues a statement condemning the act. He calls it "not only an act of cowardice but an act against Islam."
