Chandrapur: A nine-month-old boy was mauled to death, apparently by a leopard, in a village in Sindewahi taluka of Chandrapur district in Maharashtra early on Sunday.
According to a forest official, the mortal remains of the infant were found around half a km away from his house located in Gadbori village.
"The baby boy was sleeping alongside his parents when a leopard possibly sneaked into their house, located close to a forest area, in the wee hours and took him away without anybody noticing it," Sindewahi range forest officer Arun Gond, said.
