Madhya Pradesh horror: Men in uniform snatched jewelry, threw children off bridge, claim survivors

The Madhya Pradesh government has suspended 21 officials, including the district magistrate and the top policeman of Datia district, where 115 people were killed in a temple stampede on Sunday. Witnesses have told stories of unimaginable horror. They have alleged that as they moved in queues to reach the temple, the rumour that a portion of the bridge was about to collapse triggered the stampede. Some have alleged that the rumour was spread by cops, a charge denied by the police.
