About this episode
In a small town in Maharashtra, bodies started showing up one by one. A girl found near a lake. Another dumped behind a temple. Then a woman. Then a child. For over a year, people whispered. About a tree, about blood, about sacrifices. But the police kept treating each case like it stood alone. A murder here, a tragedy there. Until January 4th, 1974 — when someone saw it happen. Not the aftermath. Not the body. The act itself. And with that one eyewitness, the silence of Manvat broke.
