‘Human sacrifice’ ceremony at Geneva’s CERN laboratory – involving cloaked men ‘stabbing a woman’ at night – is investigated by chiefs at world-famous science centre
Video shows several 'scientists' in re-enactment of cult ceremony staged in front of 'Hindu god Shiva'
SCIENTISTS at CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research are under investigation after a bizarre video surfaced which showed cloaked figures appearing to carry out a Satanic ritual.
In the footage, which has been circulating on the Internet, several individuals can be seen standing in a circle in front of a statue of the Hindu god Shiva.
A woman dressed in white stands in the center of the shadowy group.
They are gathered in a main square at Europe’s top physics lab, which is based in Geneva, in Switzerland.
The occult ceremony has been filmed by a secret viewer, and shows the woman being stabbed by one of the cloaked figures in a frenzy after she falls to the ground.
The undercover cameraman swears and then flees the scene with the camera still runnning.

The Hindu statue is on permanent display at the site, which houses the world's .
The centre carries out research into particle research, and uses its incredibly powerful proton smasher to try and find previously undiscovered particles.
A spokeswoman from CERN told Agence France-Presse in an email: “These scenes were filmed on our premises but without official permission or knowledge.
“Cern does not condone this type of spoof, which can give rise to misunderstandings about the scientific nature of our work.”
It added an “investigation” was under way and it was an “internal matter."
However the video has caused some to ask questions about security on the campus.
The Cern spokeswoman said when asked about security procedures: “Cern IDs are checked systematically at each entry to the Cern site whether it is night or day.”
She also added those who were involved in the "prank" had access badges.
The spokeswoman said: “Cern welcomes every year thousands of scientific users from all over the world and sometimes some of them let their humour go too far. This is what happened on this occasion."
Geneva police told AFP they had liaised with Cern about the video but it was not involved in an official investigation.
