Hyderabad, Jan 10 (SocialNews.XYZ) In a suspected case of human sacrifice, decapitated head of an unidentified man was found at a temple in Telangana's Nalgonda district on Monday.
The severed head was found at the feet of the deity at the Mettu Mahankali temple on the outskirts of Kurmedu village in Gollapalli mandal of Nalgonda.
The temple priest was shocked to see the head at the feet of the deity when he reached there early Monday and informed the police.
The police officers, who rushed to the spot, cordoned off the area and began an investigation. Police did not find any signs of the murder in the temple premises or the surrounding areas.
