Re: Primitive forms of justice e.g. virgin blood
Are you looking for info specifically from South Asia? if you're looking at history in general....
The Aztec and Maya were notoriously fond of virgin sacrifice both male and female.
I think the early Greeks were too. Or was it the early Romans? ack, i forget.
Ancient Egypt had a particularly nasty custom of entombing the wife if the husband died. (Not sure if they killed her first or just sealed her in there).
