In 1983, several girls below the age of five went missing after dark despite being asleep next to their parents. Police claimed it was man eating wolves that snatched the children, after discovering pools of blood and clothes of the girls. However the patterns were all similar. All the children abducted were girls and they were not dragged on the ground. In one case, the "wolves" threw stones at a father while trying to make an escape.
Another theory came up that it was probably the work of tantriks from the Madakshira region who practiced black magic and offered these children as human sacrifices to Goddess Kali. The police were unable to carry out the investigation due to the lack of co-operation from villagers who were too afraid to go against tantriks who could kill with their dark sorcery. The police and the forest department were at loggerheads, but the government backed the wolf theory even as the issue raged on in the Legislative Assembly.
