A chilling incident has come to light in Uttar Pradesh, India, where an 11-year-old child was allegedly sacrificed as part of a ritual performed by the owners of his school.
Police have arrested five individuals, including the school’s owner, director, principal, and two teachers, in connection with the horrific crime.
The victim, identified as Kritarth, was a class two student at DL Public School in Hathras. According to police investigations, the child was abducted from the school’s hostel by the school director, Dinesh Baghel, and a teacher, Ramprakash Solanki. The abduction was orchestrated at the behest of the school owner, Jasodhan Singh, who is believed to practice ‘tantra’ rituals.
The child was taken to a secluded location where the sacrificial ritual was to be performed. However, the plan went awry when Kritarth woke up and began crying. In a desperate attempt to silence him, the perpetrators strangled the young boy. Another teacher, Veerpal Singh, and the school principal, Laxman Singh, were also present at the scene, acting as accomplices.
