Forest officials from Chhattisgarh's Gariaband district have arrested six persons on charges of poaching from adjoining Odisha and recovered tiger skin, four live peachicks and body parts of other wild animals from them, officials said on Wednesday.

Acting on inputs, the anti-poaching team of Udanti-Sitanadi Tiger Reserve along with Odisha forest officials on June 3 took action in villages under the neighbouring state's Khariar forest range bordering the reserve, they said.
