The Hindu
The Supreme Court Friday closed the case seeking contempt action against senior Maharashtra officials for rewarding people who had killed an alleged ‘man-eater’ tigress ‘Avni’ in Yavatmal district in 2018 after it was informed that the killing was approved by the top court.
A Bench of Chief Justice S.A. Bobde and Justices A.S. Bopanna and V. Ramasubramanian, which had earlier issued notice for initiating contempt action to Maharashtra principal secretary Vikas Kharge and eight others, permitted the animal rights activist Sangeeta Dogra to withdraw her plea.
