In the Peeragarhi service road case, where three people—including a woman, were found dead inside a car, a disturbing "occult" or "black magic" angle has surfaced. Delhi Police have initiated the interrogation of a self-styled tantric (occultist) in connection with the mysterious deaths. According to sources, the occultist had allegedly trapped the three individuals by promising them immense wealth through supernatural rituals.
How The Occult Connection Was Discovered
The breakthrough came when police scrutinised CCTV footage from cameras installed around the crime scene. The footage revealed that a fourth person was present in the vehicle alongside the three deceased. Following a strenuous technical investigation, the police traced the fourth individual to a residence in Loni, Ghaziabad.
The Occultist’s Evasive Responses
Upon reaching the Loni address, authorities discovered that the man was a practicing occultist. Technical surveillance further confirmed that on the day of the incident, the three victims had driven to the tantric's house and then brought him along to Peeragarhi.
Something occurred during the journey or at the location that prompted the occultist to exit the car and flee. Sources indicate that during questioning, the man has refused to admit any involvement. He has reportedly been giving vague and evasive answers to the investigators' queries.
The Core Mystery: What Caused The Deaths?
If black magic rituals are indeed the catalyst for this tragedy, investigators believe the cause of death might be linked to substances used during the rites. Occult practices often involve burning specific materials or consuming intoxicating substances.
Police suspect that inside the hermetically sealed car, some form of ritualistic burning or chemical reaction may have taken place, leading to fatal consequences. Investigators are also looking into the victims' recent backgrounds to see if any of them were experiencing severe mental stress or had suddenly become excessively religious or obsessed with spiritual rituals.
Investigation Into Potential Poisoning
While the initial suspicion pointed toward suffocation, the police have now broadened the scope of the investigation to include potential food or drink poisoning. The definitive cause of death will only be confirmed once the detailed autopsy report and viscera analysis are finalised.
