In a bizarre case, two brothers under the spell of a tantrik killed their own teenage sister to propitiate Goddess Kali. The trantrik had advised the two brothers that if they murder their own sister they would become very rich overnight. According to reports, Shambhu babu and Krishna Babu who live in Rawatpur locality in Fatehpur had been approaching tantriks and astrologers for becoming rich. Ramesh, allegedly a tantrik, advised them to perform yagna and hawan in their house. After the rituals the he told them to slaughter their teenage sister to propitiate Goddess Kali. He said that by doing this they will get a hidden treasure inside the house. He also said that if they failed to do so they would not get the jewellery which will shift to some other place. The greed to become rich overnight blinded their senses and they hacked to death their 13-year-old sister Pinki. The body of Pinki was hacked into several pieces and offered to the Goddess. It is learnt that after hearing Pinki's screams, neighbours rushed to the house of the two brothers, locked from inside. By the time the door was broke open Pinki had been sacrificed. It is alleged that fearing arrest the two brothers dumped Pinki's body into a river. The brothers however, maintained that the girl had jumped into the river on her own. The villagers are demanding arrest of the tantrik.
