Jogan Topno, Nuri Topno and Suleman Topno said the village priest, Mathura, had been asked to name who the ‘source of evil’ was.
BURUHATU-AMTOLI PAHAR: Mathura Topno had “failed” his village. In four months, Buruhatu-Amtoli Pahar had lost eight people. Cattle were dropping dead. As the village priest and healer, he had not been able to save them. The least he could do now was point them to the source of “evil”. So, on the morning of February 23, dragged to the centre of the Gram Sabha with some 100 people around him, Mathura was asked for names. He gave them random names.
