Four arrested for illegal hunting of wild boars and deer in Ramanagara

Forest officials in Ramanagara arrested four men for illegally hunting wild boars and deer. They seized two wild boars, two deer, and weapons after a chase on January 11. The suspects, aged 38 to 46, confessed to hunting in the area for a year, claiming it was for personal use. However, officials suspect commercial motives due to the number of animals killed. The men have been charged under the Forest Act and are in judicial custody. Investigations are ongoing to determine their previous hunting activities.
