Thuggee or tuggee (Hindi: ठग्गी ṭhaggī; Urdu: ٹھگ; Nepali: ठग्गी ṭhaggī; Sanskrit: स्थग sthaga ; Marathi: ठक; Odia: ଠକ thaka; Sindhi: ٺوڳي، ٺڳ; Kannada: ಠಕ್ಕ thakka; Bengali: ঠগি ṭhogī) refers to the acts of Thugs, an organised gang of professional robbers and murderers. * Thugs travelled in groups across the Indian sub-continent for six hundred years. The Thugs traced their origin to seven Muslim tribes. Others have blamed the rise of Thuggees on the disbanding of armies in employment of Indian rulers after the British conquest. The earliest authenticated mention of thugs appears in Ziyā-ud-Dīn Baranī's History of Fīrūz Shāh, dated around 1356. Thugs were a secret cult which worshipped the goddess Kali. They operated as gangs of highway robbers, tricking and later strangling their victims.To take advantage of their victims, the thugs would join travellers and gain their confidence; this would allow them to surprise and strangle the travellers with a handkerchief or noose. They would then rob and bury their victims. This led to the thugs being called Phansigar (English: "using a noose"), a term more commonly used in southern India. During the 1830s, the thugs were targeted for eradication by the Governor-General of India, Lord William Bentinck, and his chief captain, William Henry Sleeman. * The English language word "thug" traces its roots to this, from the Hindi ठग (ṭhag), which means "swindler" or "deceiver". Related words are the verb thugna ("to deceive"), from the Sanskrit स्थग (sthaga "cunning, sly, fraudulent") and स्थगति (sthagati, "he conceals"). This term, describing the murder and robbery of travellers, is popular in the northern parts of Indian subcontinent and particularly India.* |
