Seven-year-old girl abducted & ‘sacrificed' in Chhattisgarh for occult ritual; five, close relatives held
RAIPUR: A seven-year-old girl who had gone missing in April, was found to be murder after abduction by her relatives who allegedly performed a tantric ritual as part of their belief in human sacrifice and killed her using a knife in Mungeli district of Chhattisgarh. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Police have arrested five people who had buried the body in a field. In their chilling confession, the accused said that they were driven by a belief that child sacrifice would bring them immense wealth and they orchestrated the murder. It's a shocking case of ritualistic killing rooted in blind superstition and greed, Mungeli SP Bhojram Patel said. Briefing the reporters, police said that the victim, identified as Lali Goswami went missing from her home in Kosabadi village on the night of April 11. She was sleeping next to her mother when she was kidnapped and taken to a cremation ground nearby, where a tantric ritual was performed before she was killed. Her body was buried in a field nearly 100 meters away to destroy evidence. Dark Ritual, Chilling Confession According to SP Patel, the five arrested include the girl's close relative Ritu Goswami (36), cousin brother Chimman Giri Goswami (40), and three associates Narendra Marko (21), Akash Maravi (21), and a local occult practitioner, Ramratan Nishad alias "Baiga" (45). Investigations revealed that Ritu was the mastermind behind the crime. Believing that child sacrifice would bring them wealth, she planned the killing as part of a ritual known locally as 'Jharan Puja.' The family's financial condition was poor, and Chimman, ran a small shop of tent rentals and liquor sales. DNA testing confirmed the skeletal remains found near the cremation ground belonged to Lali. The child had multiple injuries, and forensic reports established homicide. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The case initially went cold due to a lack of leads. But nearly a month after Lali went missing, her skull and bones were discovered by locals near the village's cremation ground on May 6, reigniting the investigation. Police formed eight special teams for thorough probe. With no clear confessions and suspects repeatedly changing their statements, police resorted to narco-analysis, brain mapping, and polygraph tests of the prime suspects. It was during these tests that the horrifying truth came out. Ritu Goswami confessed that she paid Narendra to kidnap the girl. At around 1 AM, he brought Lali to Ritu, who dressed her in black clothes for the ritual. After performing occult rites, Ritu and her accomplices killed the girl. The body was then buried in a field with the help of Akash to avoid detection. A Crime That Has Left a Village Stunned The accused even used ritualistic materials, which were later recovered along with the murder weapon. A neighbour proved instrumental to the breakthrough, telling police that he had seen the group carrying a child toward the cremation site on the night of the crime. All five accused were presented in court and have been remanded to judicial custody. The case has left the village of Kosabadi in shock, exposing the deep roots of superstition and the dangers of blind faith. SP Bhojram Patel said, 'This is not just a murder, it's a horrifying reminder of how vulnerable children can be in the grip of superstition and familial betrayal.'

TTC hires New York City transit executive as new CEO
The TTC has hired a new chief executive who said he hopes to get the city's buses, subways and streetcars moving more efficiently. On Thursday, the Toronto Transit Commission Board unanimously voted in favour of the recommendation from its selection committee to hire Mandeep S. Lali as the new CEO. For the last three years, Lali was the New York City Transit Authority's executive vice-president and CEO responsible for its subway system. 'Mr. Lali has over two decades of global experience in transit,' Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow said at a press conference in Scarborough. 'He deeply understands public transit in a big, busy city. Mandeep Lali's depth of experience managing the most complex subway system in the world is exactly what we need to get Toronto moving.' Lali replaces former CEO Rick Leary, who announced a year ago that he was leaving the agency after a decade on the job. Lali will officially step into his new role on July 7. 'My vision for the TTC is to be world class,' Lali said. 'World class in safety, reliability, affordability, and accessibility. Those are all basics which are fundamentals to a great transportation system.' Some of the top priorities for Lali include addressing slow zones and bunching of buses. 'Looking ahead, this is a very exciting time here in Toronto,' he said. 'You've got a metamorphosis and transformation happening in respect to the transport sector.' Councillor Dianne Saxe, who sits on the TTC Board, congratulated Lali for his appointment. 'I look forward to working together towards making the TTC the reliable, safe and efficient public transit service Torontonians deserve,' she wrote on social media. Transit advocacy group TTCriders said they hope Lali can restore trust in the TTC, deliver reliable and accessible service, and build a stronger, more transparent transit system. 'TTCriders looks forward to working with the new CEO to put riders first and grow the TTC into a world-class transit system,' Andrew Pulsifer, Executive Director of TTCriders, said in a statement. 'This is a moment to change course and bring real improvements that transit users across the city are calling for.' Before his time in New York, Lali was employed by Transport for London as its head of power management and signals from 2002 to 2015 and at Otis Elevator from 2015 to 2022.
