Wild boar hunters arrested in Islamabad
 [DAWN] As many as 14 people were locked awayMaw! They're comin' to get me, Maw! within the limits of the industrial area cop shoppe for hunting wild boars. Two wild boars were also recovered from the culprits, who were caught red-handed.
It is pertinent to mention that, although there is a ban on hunting wild boars within the limits of the federal capital, various groups are involved in capturing these boars with the help of dogs, and then use them for gambling in rural areas. An official of the Capital Development Authority (CDA), requesting anonymity, said on Monday that he was tipped about a group of hunters who were catching boars in Sector H-8. A team of the wildlife department (WLD) of CDA reached the area and saw a pick-up truck parked in the green belt. "We saw that a wild boar was in the truck and, soon, the hunters brought another wild boar, which was tied to a bamboo," he said. Posted by: Fred 2014-04-09 |
