BISWANATH CHARIALI, June 10: Two cattle heads belonging to Manbir Biswakarma, a resident of Lakhangarh, Samar Dalani under Sootea Police Station, were stolen on Sunday night from his cowshed. According to reports, the owner had checked his cowshed around 11:30 pm and found the cows safe. However, upon returning later, he discovered that both cows were missing. He promptly informed the local Village Defence Party (VDP) secretary and Sootea Police.
It is noteworthy that incidents of cow smuggling are on the rise in the Naduar area. Sonitpur Police, in collaboration with Jamuguri Police, had busted a gang of cow smugglers from the western part of Jamugurihat a month ago. Suspicious vehicles have been observed moving swiftly in the villages at night. Local residents have appealed to the civil and police administration to address the issue promptly. Many villages have initiated night patrols to safeguard their communities.
