Two Brothers Arrested for Shooting Cheetah Cub in Madhya Pradesh; Gun Recovered
Two brothers, Bhagwan Singh and Pritam Singh, were arrested in Madhya Pradesh for allegedly shooting a 19-month-old male cheetah, KNG-22, near Kuno National Park. The licensed double-barrel muzzle-loading gun used was recovered. The cheetah was found injured on October 25 and died two days later despite treatment. The Special Task Force (STF) investigation found no evidence of involvement by organised wildlife crime syndicates or illegal trade. The accused reportedly fired at the cheetah during a hunting trip and face charges under the Wildlife Protection Act.
