Yet another witch hunting incident rocked the state when one women along with her children & husband was driven away from satpara village of purba dinbandhunagar under mandai block, barely 45 km from city of Agartala. Tripura yuktibad bikash mancha rushed to the spot and found that suspicion rose over 'mysterious death' of a villager in recent past.Villagers having deep and long held belief in witch practice found the death inexplicable as body of the deceased did not burn fully while being cremated .Also cause of death of the person in hospital was not explained to the keens. Members of the organisation held a meeting of the villagers and brought people in confidence and negotiating with them to bring back the fled family which may be successful very soon. Organisation is going to conduct a health awareness camp soon. A few scene of the village and the people.
