The Village of Ganeshpur’s Mysterious Nighttime Power Outages

There aren't many things more unpleasant than losing power, but the Indian village of Ganeshpur had to put up with it frequently, since the power would go out for two or three hours at night. People started to become suspicious because the nearby towns were fine and there was never inclement weather or anything else you may ordinarily associate with town-wide power outages. What might result in brief, frequent power outages?

Local electrician was being suspected by the locals as they grew suspicious. The following time the power went out, they tracked the man to a nearby school, where he was covertly having sex with his girlfriend. He had been routinely interrupting the power, so they could meet secretly. The locals were not amused and reportedly thrashed the man before shaving his head and forcing him to wed his girlfriend.

An Indian guy was arrested after it was claimed that he had turned off the power to his entire hamlet so he could meet his girlfriend in the dark. Due to the occurrence, the electrician was forced into marriage with the woman after being caught red-handed by the townspeople.
