On 12th December 2019, Arbaaz Khan and Chandresh Choudhary who are rescuers and educators of SARRP NGO(Spreading awareness on reptiles and rehabilitation programme) received a call regarding a snake being spotted in a house around 5:00 pm in Gadkari(Chembur). When the rescuers reached the spot, the caller said that there were two snakes inside his house.

The rescuers inspected the area where the snakes were last spotted and saw more than one snake hiding in a crack. At first, both the rescuers were confused as the snakes were similar to a Common Krait according to the colouration (morph) as snakes were blackish in colour but as soon as the snakes were removed from their hiding spot by poking a thin stick, they noticed the bands and the body structure was similar to a Common wolf snake but the species rescued didn't seem like a Common wolf snake(Lycodon Aulicus) as the bands colour was yellowish.
