According to the story, the first unusual incident occurred when Raju reportedly heard the sound of a tree being cut somewhere in the forest. Venky initially dismissed it, but a short while later, both of them claimed they could clearly hear the same sound.
The two friends then stopped briefly to take a photograph. Later, while reviewing the image on their phone, they allegedly noticed what appeared to be a headless shadow above Venky’s head.
Shaken by what they believed they had seen, the pair decided to leave the area immediately. However, according to Venky’s account, Raju’s behaviour suddenly changed. Venky claimed that Raju repeatedly said, “There are people I know here… Stop the bike.”
