PONDA:
Since the last couple of days, the forest officials are searching for the gaur, which has created panic in the village.
A team of eight staff of forest department visited Shivade-Dharbandora and conducted the panchnama.
Sources from forest department informed that five night vision cameras have been installed in areas where people have seen the gaur.
Meanwhile, the forest staff have brought an elephant from Bondla zoo to hunt for the gaur.
It may be recalled that the farmer had gone to his plantation on Wednesday afternoon, where he is believed to have noticed the gaur and may have made attempts to drive the animal away from his farm. The gaur is believed to have attacked Solyenkar, who sustained several injuries on his stomach, chest and other parts of the body, killing him at the site. His plantation of cashew and banana trees is 50 metres from his house. TGN
