Marauding monkey caught in Delhi
2007-11-13
NEW DELHI: A monkey which had attacked more than 25 people in an east Delhi locality over the weekend was caught on Tuesday morning, much to the relief of the frightened residents. "The marauding simian was caught from Shastri Park area with the help of a monkey-catcher.

It will be released in Asola area soon," an MCD spokesperson said in New Delhi. The monkey had gone on a rampage in the area on Saturday night attacking more than 25 people including children, creating terror among the residents. One of the victims is still battling for life in a hospital. The victims included many children.

Though baton-wielding residents kept a vigil in the area to catch the monkey, their efforts were wasted. It took two days for the municipal staff to catch the monkey.

Last month, Delhi's Deputy Mayor met with a tragic end after he fell down from the first floor of his residence after being attacked by a monkey.

#1  License to kill gophers monkeys by the government of the United Nations. Man, free to kill gophers monkeys at will. To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint monkey. And a varmint monkey will never quit - ever. They're like the Viet Cong - Varmint Monkey Cong. So you have to fall back on superior intelligence and superior firepower. And that's all she wrote...
