Raipur : Eight people have been arrested in Chhattisgarh’s industrial city Bhilai after a young man was killed in group clashes over a dispute over witchcraft.
Police said two groups clashed Monday night at Sector 11 in Bhilai, about 30 km from here, after some people attacked a woman’s house blaming her for the death of a boy.
This led to the group clash in which a 22-year-old man, S. Gopi, suffered severe head injuries and died later, said Additional Superintendent of Police Prashant Thakur.
Chhattisgarh is infamous for witchcraft related violence.
