New Delhi, Nov 10 (PTI) An animal rights activist has moved Supreme Court

alleging that he has been implicated in criminal and wildlife violation

cases by the Haryana Government, which should be taking action against

former Indian cricket Test captain Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi in the " Jhajjar

black buck killing case. " A bench of Justices L S Panta and Aftab Alam on

Monday issued notices to the Haryana Government seeking its response on the

special leave petition filed by Naresh Kadyan, a designated " Master Trainer "

of the Animal Welfare Board of India.

 

Pataudi along with seven of his associates was involved in a controversy on

June 3, 2005 after they illegally hunted a black buck and two hares in

Kirlod village of Jhajjar town.

 

Kadyan, in his SLP alleged that the authorities instead of vigorously

pursuing the case against Pataudi and others have foisted false cases

against him under IPC sections 186 (obstruction public servant from

discharing duties), 297 (trespass into burial grounds), 332 (causing hurt to

public servant), 342 (wrongful confinement) and 353 (assaulting or using

criminal force against public servant).

 

He was also booked under Section 51 of the Wildlife Act, according to his

counsel Aeltemesh Rein.

 

According to the petitioner even though wildlife officials caught Pataudi

and other accused " red handed " , they were released along with the weapons

and vehicles used in the offence. PTI
