In a chilling incident that has sent shockwaves through a quiet village in Chhattisgarh’s Balod district, the grave of a three-year-old girl was tampered with on Mahashivratri night. Residents of Mahudbi village under Gundardehi police station’s Haldi chowki woke up to a horrifying discovery: fresh digging marks around the burial site and suspicious items scattered nearby.
The little girl had passed away three months ago on October 9, 2025, and was laid to rest near the village’s Mukti Dham. When villagers noticed the disturbed soil the next morning, panic spread like wildfire. A large crowd gathered as word spread of the desecration. Police and administration officials rushed to the scene upon receiving reports.
Upon excavating the grave in the presence of law enforcement, the unimaginable was revealed: the child’s head was missing. Nearby, they found a lemon, uncooked rice, and a piece of meat—items often associated with occult rituals. The discovery fueled fears of black magic practices in the area.
Villagers expressed outrage and fear, demanding swift action. ‘This is terrifying. Who would do such a thing to a child’s grave?’ said one distraught local. The family, already grieving, is devastated by this violation. Police have launched a thorough investigation, registering a case and scanning the area for clues. Forensic teams are expected to examine the site for fingerprints and other evidence.
This incident has reignited concerns about superstitious practices in rural Chhattisgarh. Authorities assure the public that no stone will be left unturned to apprehend the culprits and restore peace to the frightened community. As the probe deepens, the village remains on edge, grappling with the eerie mystery.
