The Karnataka High Court, through suo motu case, took cognizance of the incident, wherein a cohort of unidentified persons had allegedly poisoned Bonnet Macaques which resulted in death of 38 such monkeys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incident had been reported by media houses, when their carcasses had been found in the Hassan District of Karnataka. The reports mentioned that the monkeys were allegedly poisoned, stuffed in the gunny bags, and beaten mercilessly before being thrown at the location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The division bench had directed the Registrar General to file a petition, seeking actions against the responsible individuals who massacred monkeys. The bench further stated the need to lay down guidelines in order to curb such inhuman and grave incidents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The court held Principal Secretary of Forest Department; Deputy Collector and Deputy Chief Conservator of Forest of Hassan District; and Superintendent of Police and Animal Welfare Board, as the respondents in the said petition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further, the court added that it would be appropriate if the respective authorities to the Deputy Collector of Hassan District submit a report on the incident and action taken on part of the authorities. The court directed the report to be placed before it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The court highlighted the reference of Apex Court’s verdict<\/a> in the case of Animal Welfare Board of India v A. Nagaraja and Ors.<\/strong>, wherein the court recognized the rights and freedom of animals<\/a>. It further referred to the Sections 3 and 11 of Prevention of Cruelty to Animals r\/w Article 51 of Indian Constitution which ensures access<\/a> to safe and healthy atmosphere, and right to protection from pain and suffering inflicted by human beings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The court would take up the petition for hearing in the month of August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
