“Chingaree, a class of Multani Thugs, sometimes called Naiks, of the Mussulman faith. They proceed on their expeditions and bullocks laden with merchandize, which they expose for sale at their encampments, and thereby attract their victims. They use the rope of their bullocks instead of the \*roomal\* in strangling. They are an ancient tribe of Thugs, and take their wives and children on their expeditions.”
