Bahraich/Uttar Pradesh: Police arrested three people for allegedly killing a 10-year-old boy as a human sacrifice, following an occultist's advice, PTI reported citing officials.

According to Superintendent of Police Prashant Verma, the son of a Parsa Village resident, Krishna Verma, had gone missing on Thursday night. That night, the boy Vivek's body was found in a field. His throat was found slit.

Police investigation revealed that the victim's cousin Anoop had a two-and-a-half-year-old son who was mentally challenged and also used to be sick. When the treatment did not yield positive results, Anoop approached an occultist near his village who made Anoop perform the sacrifice. Anoop and the victim's uncle Chintaram killed him using a spade, the probe found.

The three accused - Anoop, Chintaram and the occultist - were arrested on Saturday, police said.

The SP on Sunday said a case of murder had been registered against the accused.
