The Inside Story
Superstition claims innocent life in Saharanpur
A 12-year-old boy named Deepak Kashyap was brutally murdered in Ramgarh village of Nakuird Block in Saharanpur district, allegedly by his stepmother, her brother, and a tantrik. The boy had gone missing on Monday afternoon and was found dead on Tuesday. After investigating the matter, the police established that the murder was a result of human sacrifice. The three accused were arrested on Wednesday evening.
The boy's body had several gashes all over, apparently inflicted from a sharp-edged weapon, with a piece of flesh missing from the back of his neck. The post-mortem report confirmed that the wound was not caused by any animal, but by the use of a weapon. The police found a blood-stained sickle near the dead body, but it was for use by right-handed, while the victim was left-handed.
Further investigations into the family's profile revealed that Deepak was the first child of his parents, and none of his siblings survived for more than a year. The stepmother confessed to her crime after being questioned and revealed that the murder was committed at the instance of a local tantrik who had assured her that after a human sacrifice, preferably of a minor male, she would be cured of her curse that was responsible for the deathof her newly borns.
