They said the three policemen, all Mohammcdans. were captured by the mob and bound together. ‘Their uniforms were then soaked with kerosene and set afire. The outrage took place near the Ses- sions Court Building, which was also burned by the mob, which had begun its demonstration in behalf of the civil dlsobedlence- campaign and in protest at arrest of Mahatma Gand- hi. The refugees carried with them what they could snatch from their houses, after the evacuation order was given. Some had their dogs canaries and cooking utensils.
