Following recent poaching cases, the formation of dedicated teams of Maharashtra Security Force (MSF) jawans to patrol in Film City seems to be paying off. In the past three days, the MSF teams have deactivated around 10 metal snares set by poachers. During patrolling, they also recovered two deer antlers, which will be handed over to forest department.

"Our dedicated teams have been patrolling continuously in Film City, including the forested patch in our jurisdiction. We have deactivated 10 metal snares and found two deer antlers and have informed the Thane Forest Department (Territorial) too," said an MSF Jawan.
