Haridwar . In the sensational case of hunting of two tigers in Shyampur range of Haridwar Forest Division, the Forest Department has got three-day remand of the main accused Aamir Hamza alias Mian from the court. During the remand period, the Forest Department team will thoroughly interrogate Hamza and try to recover the missing claws of the tigers and expose the entire poaching network.
According to Forest Department officials, investigation has revealed that the entire conspiracy to hunt tigers was hatched by Aamir Hamza. It is alleged that he targeted the tigers by spraying poisonous chemicals on the dead buffalo carcass. After the death of the tigers, their claws were also cut off.

A special team has been formed under the leadership of Forest Department SDO Poonam Silori, which will recreate the crime scene. Four associates of Aamir Hamza have already been arrested in the case and sent to jail. Amidst pressure for arrest, Aamir Hamza surrendered directly in the court. Now after getting the remand, the forest department will try to find out from him where the tigers’ claws are hidden and whether any big wildlife smuggling gang is active behind this hunting scandal.
DFO Swapnil Anirudh said that the accused will be interrogated in detail during remand. The Forest Department hopes that after interrogating Hamza, the mastermind of this scandal, many important revelations related to tiger hunting can be made and the entire network can be exposed.
