MEERUT: In a one-of-its-kind case, Shamli police in UP has ordered a DNA test of an allegedly stolen buffalo, two years after a resident of Ahmadgarh village of Shamli district traced it to a nearby village. Chandrapal Kashyap, a labourer, had complained that a male three-year-old buffalo calf was stolen from his cowshed on August 25, 2020.
It was later found in November, 2020 in Beenpur village of Saharanpur but the alleged owner Satbir Singh refused to part with the animal claiming it was his. The matter took a back seat during the Covid-19 pandemic.
