THE Madras High Court on Tuesday constituted a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe 19 cases of elephant poaching, most of which took place between 2013 and 2018 and remain unsolved.
The SIT, led by CBI Superintendent of Police Nirmala Devi, includes CBI Deputy Superintendent of Police Santhosh Kumar, former Chief Wildlife Warden Shekhar Kumar Niraj, Deputy Conservator of Forests R Rajmohan, and IPS officer Mohan Nawaj.
A Divisional Bench of justices V Bharathidasan and N Satish Kumar ordered the SIT to begin the investigation from May 15 and submit a preliminary report by June 10. Thirteen of the 19 cases had been deliberately under-reported to hush-up the killings, sources told TNIE.
