The Forest Department has continued the search for the leopard which was spotted in an apartment in Singasandra near Kudlu Gate on Sunday.
The department has set up two cages in the vegetation area to capture the animal. It has also used drones to track down the movement of the leopard.
Residents in Singasandra, especially those living in the apartment where it was spotted, have been in constant fear since. Sources say that the leopard may have come from the defence forest area.
