Guest beardo Posted August 14, 2002 Share Posted August 14, 2002 Doctors say it’s mass hysteria; police say bugs are responsible http://a799.ms.akamai.net/3/799/388/6f787ede837999/www.msnbc.com/news/1589650.jpg'> Brijesh Nishaad, 18, wears bandages on his face as family members look on Aug. 3, after he was allegedly injured by an unidentified flying object called "Moohnochwa," while sleeping outdoors in Allahabad, India. By Prajnan Bhattacharya ASSOCIATED PRESS SHANWA, India, Aug. 12 — It comes in the night, a flying sphere emitting red and blue lights that attacks villagers in this poor region, extensively burning those victims it does not kill. At least that’s what panic-stricken villagers say. At least seven people have died of unexplained injuries in the past week in Uttar Pradesh state. “A MYSTERIOUS flying object attacked him in the night,” Raghuraj Pal said of his neighbor, Ramji Pal, who died recently in Shanwa. “His stomach was ripped open. He died two days later.” Many others have suffered scratches and surface wounds, which they say were inflicted while they slept. In the village of Darra, 53-year-old Kalawati said she was attacked last week and displayed blisters on her blackened forearms. “It was like a big soccer ball with sparkling lights,” said Kalawati, who uses only one name. “It burned my skin.” “I can’t sleep because of pain,” she said. ALTERNATE EXPLANATIONS Doctors dismiss the stories as mass hysteria. “More often than not the victims have unconsciously inflicted the symptoms themselves,” said Narrotam Lal, a doctor at King George’s Medical College in Lucknow, the state capital. The police have another explanation: bugs. “It is a 3½-inch-long winged insect” that leaves rashes and superficial wounds, Kavindra P. Singh, a superintendent of police, told the Press Trust of India news agency. Police drew this conclusion after residents of one village found insects they had never seen before. VILLAGERS WORRIED Villagers are unconvinced. In the most affected area, the Mirzapur district, 440 miles (700 meters) southeast of New Delhi, people have stopped sleeping outdoors despite the sweltering heat and frequent power outages. Villagers also have formed protection squads that patrol Shanwa, beating drums and shouting slogans such as, “Everyone alert. Attackers beware.” Some accuse district officials of inaction and failing to capture the “aliens.” One person died Thursday in nearby Sitapur when police fired shots to disperse a 10,000-strong crowd demanding that authorities capture the mysterious attackers. “People just block the roads and attack the police for inaction each time there’s a death or injury,” said Amrit Abhijat, Mirzapur’s district magistrate, who claims he has captured the UFO on film.

Guest --zeSto-- Posted August 14, 2002 Share Posted August 14, 2002 more monkey man madness... NEW DELHI, India -- The mysterious "monkey man" that instilled terror and claimed three lives in the Indian capital was simply the product of the city's collective imagination. This was the conclusion of Indian police, who have branded last month's reign of the "monkey man" nothing more than the product of "mass hysteria." The probe by forensic experts and psychiatrists said the supposed half man- half beast was a "mere figment of the imagination of emotionally weak people," The Times of India said, quoting police sources. Large colonies in New Delhi were gripped by fear of attacks after dozens of people reported they were bitten or clawed by the nocturnal "monkey man." At least three people panicked and fell to their deaths from buildings during the two-week saga because they were convinced the attacker -- described varyingly as a monkey-like creature with metallic claws and a cat with tawny, glowing eyes -- was pursuing them. Police said they received nearly 350 complaints of sighting or attacks by the shadowy "monkey man." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stapler Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 What I find funny is that 3 people fell of building roofs when being chased by monkey man. If they fell of the buildings and died then how the fuck would they know that MONKEY MAN was resposible. Unless someone saw them being chased. Maybe they COMMITED SUICIDE, those crazy people from India. Very supersticous like the Japanese here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
