Tiger deaths: MM Hills officials, panel conduct spot inspection

Mysuru: As part of the probe into the deaths of five tigers at MM Hills Wildlife Sanctuary on June 26, the committee formed by the government, sanctuary authorities and Kollegal police on Tuesday conducted a spot inspection along with three accused and recreated the scene of crime. The committee formed by the government is headed by APCCF Kumar Pushkar. The team must submit a report to the govt within two weeks. Meanwhile, G Santhosh Kumar, who was given additional charge as DCF of MM Hills, took charge on Tuesday. The DCF visited the spot as part of the probe. Konappa, Maduraja and Nagaraj were arrested on charges of killing the tigers — four cubs (three female and one male) and the mother tigress — by poisoning. The accused told the investigating team that to avenge the killing of their cow by the big cat, they sprayed poison over the carcass, knowing that the tiger would return to the kill to eat the leftovers.
