| Another person succumbs to man - animal conflict | | Body of youth recovered after 2 months in Budgam | | Et Report
Budgam , Feb 12 : The man animal conflict seems to have become norm of the day in remote villages of Kashmir valley.
Earlier such conflicts used to be witnessed in far flung and remote areas of Kupwara , Shopian or Baramulla districts but from the last couple of years even the districts which have less forest cover too have become a hub of wild animal attacks and the main reason is devastation of the forests which has forced wild animals to enter into villages adjoining these deforested areas. Budgam district in central Kashmir had very few incidents of man animal conflict until some years back but there has been a sudden rise in such incidents from the last five years and an estimated more than two dozen people have been killed during wild animal attacks on villages located not only near forests but in even other villages as well from 2008 till date.
On Monday morning a mutilated body of youth hailing from Wathoora Batpora in Budgam was recovered by Budgam police from village Zin Panchaal village near Chararisharief town.
A s per local sources the young man Feroz Ahmad Baba aged around 23 went missing on December 10th 2013 from his maternal uncles's home located at village Futlipora tehsil Charar-i-shaief . "Feroz had gone to his maternal uncle's home on December 9th and while returning back he might have probably been walking through some remote corner of the village and would have subsequently been attacked by a leopard and killed on spot" said one of the locals from Feroze's village . His dead body could not be recovered as there was snow fall soon after December 10th 2013 and the body had remained beneath the snow until few days back when the local residents of Zin Panchaal found it and informed the police. The police had been in search of Feroz after his family filed a missing report in the Police Station Chararisharief . The deceased was the sole bread earner of his family and was running a readymade garment shop in main market at Chadoora Budgam .
He was not well also said the locals as the deceased had some mild mental ailment. SP Budgam Mohammad Irshad said that deceased was missing since December 10th and the family had filed a missing report as well.
SP Budgam further said that he might have been killed by some wild animals while waling through the fields near Futlipora Charar-i-sharief. |
