Oh fucking hell. The stuff you come across while reading history closely.
Khudiram Bose and Prafulla Chaki went to Muzaffarpur to assassinate Magistrate Kingsford, who was known for cruel and unjust sentences, especially on the Jugantar revolutionaries. 1/n

Khudiram was caught alive. Prafulla shot himself to avoid capture.
Instead of having Khudiram identify his body in Muzaffarpur, they decapitated Prafulla and sent his head to Calcutta to be identified.
I cannot even deal with reading about British inhumanity and cruelty.

Like seriously. What the fuck dude. The sheer cruelty of it all.
Next time someone tells you "the british brought civilization upon xyz country", tell them this fun fact.

I can't man. I can't

Oh and the source is Wikipedia which cites "Khudiram Bose - Revolutionary Extraordinaire" by Hitendra Patel. This was published by the I&B ministry.
Decades ago when I watched Priyadarshan's Kalapani/Siraichalai and watched those untold cruelties he showed very clearly, I was under the impression that was only the case in the Andamans.
No. This was the norm across the British empire. Cruel, inhuman treatment of Indians.

Don't even bother arguing about if the Bengal famine was intentional or not. These cruelties and the very presence of Port Blair penal colony are sufficient.
