IF this is true, and it seems to be, (there have been at least four attempted and actual sacrifices of infants in the last year in the region) it show just how readily the gullible and the monstrous can still be exploited by unscrupulous religion.

Another incident from Assam has come to light where a 4-year-old girl was beheaded and offered as a sacrifice by a ‘tantrik’ (witch doctor) in Assam to trace a lost mobile phone. The girl Sunu Godba who was missing since last October 24 was tortured and beheaded by the witch doctor. The body of the girl was recovered on Monday afternoon from a forest near her home in Ratanpur tea estate in Charaideo district of upper Assam. The gruesome act involved four people who under the influence of a person who practiced black magic committed such crime.
