Captain Blumburtt's Open Car
A ceremonial open car used for Captain Blumburtt’s departure from Pankot Palace, symbolizing the British empire’s ritualized withdrawal and detachment from the horrors unfolding beneath the palace. Distinct from the falsified Pankot Report, which is a document tied to the active concealment of the Thuggee cult’s crimes.
