The sensational incident that took place in Assam’s Kalaigaon on July 6, when a science teacher and his family disrobed themselves completely, amid an alleged plan to sacrifice a minor child took place as per the instructions of a tantric named Ramesh Saharia.

Police has launched a massive manhunt to nab the tantrik who is believed to have indoctrinated the family to sacrifice the 2-year old toddler.

The tantrik identified as Ramesh Saharia had allegedly propagated vicious superstitions in the family. Influenced by the tantrik, the family decided to perform a human sacrifice.

The child, who was supposed to be sacrificed, was the daughter of Jadav Saharia’s sister-in-law.
