Gujarat: Crocodiles jostle to tear human body into pieces

VADODARA: When fishermen spotted two crocodiles pulling something in Narmada River at Shinor, about 55 km from Vadodara city, they first thought that it would be some animal hunted by the reptile.
But after a closer look they were shocked as the reptiles were trying to bite a dead man’s body into pieces.
Some locals shot a video of the horrific incident that happened on Monday and soon it went viral.
“The man’s body was spotted in Shinor, so we launched a hunt.
After a few hours, we found the body near Malsar that is a few kilometres away.
Efforts are on to ascertain the man’s identity,” said a police official from Shinor.
The cops said that there were severe bite marks on the man’s body.
In the video, initially only one crocodile is seen trying to tear the man’s body and drag it away into deep waters but two other reptiles also joined in and even got into fight to get their share.
“His body had no clothes and the man seemed to be in his thirties.
We have sent his body for post-mortem.
We will investigate if the man was dragged away by the reptiles or he drowned in the river and was later attacked by the crocodiles,” the police said.
Police said a postmortem will confirm if the man had any weapon-induced or other injuries on his body.
Police are scanning missing persons report in the district to find out if anyone has filed a complaint about the victim.
“We are not sure from where did the man fall exactly in the river,” the police added.
