GOSABA: A 55-year-old crab-catcher out on a crab-hunting trip was found dead, his body apparently half-eaten by a tiger, in the Sunderbans on Wednesday.
Dharani Mondal\u2019s body was found by a team of forest officials, accompanied by locals, deep inside the forests between Kumirmari and Jhila rivers. He was from Sarkarpara in the Gosaba area and had left to catch crabs on Monday, accompanied by some local teenagers.
Local fishermen\u2019s association leader Chandan Maity said: \u201cThe teenagers accompanying the victim were inexperienced in how to tackle a tiger. Only Dharani had such experience. The teenagers returned and informed about the incident.\u201d
Dharani\u2019s relative Amulya Mondal said the body had been half-eaten by a tiger. A forest official said: \u201cThe victim\u2019s body has been sent for post-mortem. We are probing whether those who went on the crab-catching trip had passes authorising them to do so.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
