Police investigating the sensational human sacrifice case in Kerala’s Pathanamthitta district suspect that the couple consumed the flesh of the victims after chopping their bodies in pieces on the advice of the sorcerer, the kingpin of the crime, Muhammand Shafi alias Rasheed.
Police said that prima facie the crime was committed to settle the financial issues of the accused couple — Bhagaval Singh and his wife Laila and to bring prosperity in their life.
As per media reports, one of the accused has confessed to cooking the flesh of the victims after their brutal murder and eating the same. Police have not ascertained this yet and a probe is ongoing to determine the facts.
According to police, the two women, who made a living selling lottery tickets on the streets here, were ‘sacrificed’ by the accused to resolve the financial problems of the couple.
The chopped body parts, suspected to be that of the deceased, were exhumed from the premises of the couple’s house at Elanthoor on Tuesday.
The women had gone missing in September and June this year and the eventual probe, based on their mobile phone details and tower locations, unravelled the story of human sacrifice.
