23 Jul
Summary
- 5-year-old child killed in sorcery ritual
- Uncle confessed to murder to get wife back from parental home
- Sorcerer arrested for aiding in the crime

Three days ago, on Saturday, a 5-year-old child named Lokesh was found killed in Sarai village, located in the Mundawar police station area of Khairthal district. Police investigations revealed that the child's uncle, Manoj, was responsible for the murder, which he committed as part of a sorcery ritual.
Manoj told the police that his wife had gone to her parental home following a domestic dispute and refused to return. In a desperate attempt to get his wife back, Manoj contacted a tantrik named Sunil Kumar, who demanded a child's sacrifice and the child's blood for a ritual. Manoj then targeted his own nephew, Lokesh, luring him to an abandoned house on the pretext of buying him candy. He killed the child and hid the body in a hay house.
The police have arrested both Manoj and the tantrik, Sunil Kumar, for their involvement in the gruesome murder. The syringe used by Manoj to extract the child's blood has also been recovered as evidence.
This tragic incident highlights the dangerous consequences of resorting to superstitious practices and the lengths some individuals will go to in the name of sorcery and black magic.
