Four poachers arrested in Raisen
Four poachers were arrested along with the hide and body parts of a deer at Ghadi forest range near here, officials said.
"These accused, hailing from Bhopal, were nabbed after a tip-off that some poachers were looking for animals in the wild last night, area Deputy Ranger R K Tiwari said.
Tiwari said the forest field staffers searched for them and tracked down Mazhar, Ashique, Jaheer and Mohammed Yunus at a thatched house in a field in Ghadi range.
However, he said that one Asif managed to escape, adding that the accused have been booked under relevant sections of Wildlife Protection Act.
