2 Tantriks kill MP man, persuade him to cut middle finger to attract money, detained

In Narsinghpur, Madhya Pradesh, two tantriks, or occultists, were taken into custody after they allegedly killed a man under the false pretence of assisting him in becoming wealthy. On November 4, the disfigured body of the 22-year-old victim was discovered in a field, with cuts on his head and neck from a sharp object.

Additionally, by claiming it would make him richer, the accused persuaded Ankit Kaurav, the victim, to cut the middle finger on his right hand.

The 40-year-old Surendra Kachi and the 45-year-old Rammu Kachi have been identified as the tantriks. After police established a special team led by SP Amit Kumar, both of them were taken into custody.

The victim and the accused were observed riding bikes on the night of the incident, according to the investigation. When he had become ill about four months prior, he had also sought advice from occultists.

He had also seen physicians, but according to the police, occultists were the only ones who could help him recover.

The victim chose to re-trust the accused as a result of this encounter. When the victim’s brother-in-law became ill about 15 days ago, the family began to experience financial difficulties due to the cost of the treatment.

The 22-year-old then got in touch with the occultists once more and stated that he wanted more money.

The occultists consented and also succeeded in persuading Ankit to sever his right middle finger. They brought him to Tekapar village where they made arrangements for his “narbali” (human sacrifice).

After Ankit was given sleeping pills, the occultists killed him. They were brought before a judge and arrested. Currently, an investigation is is going into the matter.
