Villagers Suspect Sorcery After Grave is Disturbed in Basavakalyan Taluk
Bidar: In a bizarre incident at Manthala village in Basavakalyan taluk of Bidar district, the body of a cremated child was found tied to a tree early in the morning.
The one-and-a-half-year-old child of Ambayya Swamy from Manthala village passed away due to ill health, and the last rites were performed on Saturday, June 29. The following morning, relatives discovered that the grave had been dug up, and the child's body was placed in a black cloth and tied to a tree.
The villagers and parents, distressed by the incident, suspect that it may have been the work of sorcerers, as similar incidents have occurred in the past. The villagers then re-cremated the child at the same location.
