Leopard Attacks 75-Year-Old Woman in Rajasthan

Banswara, November 2: A 75-year-old woman was severely injured in a leopard attack while sitting outside her home in Surajkund village, Banswara district. The incident occurred when Kasturi, the victim, was enjoying tea on a charpoy. The leopard attacked her suddenly, leaving her with deep wounds on her face, head, hands, and legs, requiring around 50 stitches.

The attack has caused panic in the village and surrounding areas. According to reports, the leopard struck without warning, giving the elderly woman no chance to defend herself. Her screams alerted family members and nearby residents, who rushed to the scene. Upon hearing the commotion, the leopard fled into the nearby forest.

Kasturi was initially taken to a local hospital in Kushalgarh for first aid, but due to her critical condition, she was later referred to Mahatma Gandhi Hospital in Banswara, where she is currently receiving treatment. Her grandson, Manish, expressed that the family is now living in fear, and the presence of leopards in the area has raised serious concerns about the safety of the villagers.
