Swastik Katkar

The body of a young forest guard named Swastik Baban Katkar, 30, who worked at the Sanjay Gandhi National Park, was found floating in Tulsi lake in the core forest area of the park on Thursday. While a message had gone viral on Thursday saying the guard was killed by a leopard, an official from SGNP said it does not appear so. The exact reason for the death will be known after the post mortem report is out.
