In Baripada, a town in the state of Odisha, a recent incident at the Similipal Tiger Reserve has caught the attention of forest officials. An armed poacher from the nearby Baldiha area was successfully apprehended by the officers, according to an official statement. The accused individual, who is originally from Kuliana in the district, was taken into custody on Sunday.
Following his arrest, the poacher was presented before the chief judicial magistrate in Baripada on Monday. Despite his plea for bail, it was rejected and he was subsequently sent to judicial custody. In addition to the arrest, officials also recovered a country-made gun and explosive substances from the poacher's possession.
This is not the first time that such illegal activities have been reported in the Similipal Tiger Reserve. Despite efforts to protect the endangered animals in the reserve, poaching continues to be a pressing issue. The forest officials are determined to crack down on these criminal activities and ensure the safety of the wildlife in the area. The arrest of this poacher is a step in the right direction towards achieving this goal.
