Raipur : Chhattisgarh Police said that the man who axed five girls and four
women to death at a village in Balrampur district had been of unsound mind ever
since his wife left him.
Eyewitnesses said that Pandu Nagesiya began his killing spree in Behratoli
around 1.30 p.m on Thursday. At that time, most of the men in the village were
away at a mine where they toil daily.
Even as their female relatives and children assembled at a house in the
afternoon, the accused suddenly went on a rampage. His 25-year-old neighbour
and her child aged just two were first hacked to death. Then Nagesiya attacked
four other young girls, all below the age of nine, with an axe before murdering
three aged women.
The Press Trust of India quoted Superintendent of Police Govardhan Singh Darro
as saying that "The reason which prompted Nagesiya to attack the villagers was
being ascertained".
According to the SP, Nagesia "seems to be mentally disturbed after his wife
deserted him". The accused was arrested on Thursday evening. Police have seized
his axe. The district administration has announced that families of the
deceased will be given compensation. Balrampur Collector CR Prasanna told
newspersons that each family is to get Rs 25,000.
