Amrawati/Yawatmal, Maharashtra, May 28: In a spine-chilling incident, the grandmother of a 10-year-old girl, along with family members, slit the throat of the victim, offered her to a goddess and then drank her blood as "prasad" (blessing) in Yawatmal district of Maharashtra.
Police on Monday arrested eight persons on charge of human sacrifice, and a court has sent them to police custody for a week. Two other accused are absconding.
