Vigilantes have forced a suspected booze thief to run through town while completely naked.
The angry mob said they gave the alleged thief a ‘cognitive recalibration’ before parading him through town in his birthday suit.
The clip shows the young man holding his tackle as he runs along a street with dozens of people following him on motorbikes and cars.

As one biker appears to kick him, the man turns a corner and blistered red marks are seen all over his arms and back.
Another mob member seemingly whacks the alleged thief with a leg crutch as onlookers laugh.
The young suspect was accused of stealing alcohol from a D1 store in the neighbourhood of Robledo Miramar in Medellín, Colombia.
As a result, an angry mob seized the suspected thief and apparently beat him before parading him through town yesterday (10 Mar).
One local said: “Why don’t they do the same for white-collar thieves, politicians and corrupt officials who steal from the treasury?”
Another wrote: “It’s very stupid to defend such a store and beat a kid just for that while never standing up to real crime.”
Rosa commented: “If they caught him red handed, they should detain him and call the police.
“What they did from then on is simply a crime.”
Daniel said: “Stealing can never be justified, but what clowns defend a chain of shops that doesn’t even know they exist?”
It is unclear if the local authorities are investigating the alleged robbery and the mob for apparently taking matters into their own hands.
