At least 13 people were arrested for their involvement in the cold-blooded murder of a 40-year-old man on suspicion of sorcery in Seskhal area of Rayagada district, police said on Sunday.
The incident took place in Burusubadi village under Badaalubadi panchayat within Seskhal police limits on August 8. The deceased is Ramarao Jilakara, said IIC M Achary.
The IIC said accusing Ramarao of practicing witchcraft, a group of villagers tied him to an electric pole at the village square, assaulted him before forcing him to consume poison.
