Erected in the
17th or 18th century, the statue was supposedly used as a lie detector. People
suspected of committing a crime would be brought before the statue, made to
touch its feet, and then forced to say whether or not they committed the crime.
It was believed that if they lied, they would immediately bleed to death. The
mere threat of being brought before Kal Bhairav was often enough to elicit a
confession.
