MP high court rejects bail of forest officer in Tiger carcass case

Madhya Pradesh High Court denied anticipatory bail to forest officer Tikaram Hanote, accused of destroying evidence in the death of a tigress. Hanote allegedly participated in illegally burning the carcass to cover up the incident, violating NTCA protocols. The investigation was triggered by a social media leak, revealing the mishandling of the tigress’s death and subsequent evidence tampering.
