ROURKELA: Police arrested two brothers, both self-proclaimed tantriks, on Friday in Sundargarh district in Odisha over the charge of performing some rituals that led to the death of a 20-year-old youth on May 12. Police identified the suspects as Pramod Singh, 28, and his brother, Khirod Singh, 24, of Sahjabahal.
Police said Amit Majhi (the victim) of Barupada, his mother Jashoda, 50, and a few other villagers visited the tantrik brothers on May 11 after an astrologer told them that Amit would pass away soon.The tantriks assured Amit he would live long if he performed certain rituals.
They then led Amit into a room, gave him a laddu to eat and made him drink a glass of water thereafter.
Amit soon became unconscious, but the tantriks did not allow his mother to take him to a hospital and performed another ritual on him for more money.
