Monkeys take a 2-month-old boy and drown him in a water tank
Neighbors of the community denounce the damage caused by the apes.
A herd of monkeys stole a two-month-old boy from the roof of his home in Baghpat, India. The baby was thrown into a water tank, where he drowned.
Representatives of the minor indicate that on different occasions, the monkeys had tried to take their son away. Unlike this time they did manage to do it and forever.
The baby, Keshav Kumar, was resting in a room with the door open, near his grandmother. At that moment, the monkeys dragged him away.
The police report indicates that the boy was subsequently observed drifting in the water tank hours after the fact.
Prince and Komal, the boy's parents, insist that on other occasions family members managed to stop them. They regret that this group of animals have returned to the dark. Their sadness is inevitable knowing that they lost their son forever.
Other cases
This is not the first case in which primates, in the Asian country, kill a child. The newspaper El País made a report, in which they speak that in India they use artificial intelligence to combat monkeys.
This document shows the case of a mother was stripped of her baby, while breastfeeding him, in November 2019.
The family's neighbors assure that they have made complaints about the problems caused by these animals to the authorities. However, they have not received any kind of response.
The police explained that when investigating the surveillance cameras of the place, they discovered that the monkeys had left the house with the child, who "was in the arms of one of the monkeys".
