In this report, Nukta’s Senior Correspondent Faisal Khan investigates the infamous Chadda Group of Karachi (1998) and Monkey Man of Delhi (2001)—mysterious entities that sparked mass panic and chaos.

Were these real threats, or cases of collective hysteria fueled by societal anxieties? Drawing parallels with historical phenomena like Spring-Heeled Jack and the Halifax Slasher, Faisal delves into the psychology of fear, urban folklore, and the human tendency to create monsters during times of turmoil.
