evidence: At least 11 people, including three children, were electrocuted after a temple chariot procession in Tamil Nadu’s Thanjavur district came in contact with a high-voltage power line early on Wednesday, police said. [...] Explaining the circumstances leading to the electrocution, police said the temple car was negotiating a turn when it came into contact with the overhead line. The people standing on the chariot were thrown in the impact, they said. [...] "Organisers could not go near the generator, leave alone turning it off. Obviously no one was sure from where the electricity was originating and how it was passing on and it was mayhem," a villager who witnessed the procession move on said.
