Maharashtra: Middle aged woman, minor girl killed in separate leopard attacks

Nandurbar, Mar 17 (UNI) Two people - a woman and a 10-year-old girl - died in separate leopard attacks in Maharashtra's Nandurbar district this weekend, officials said on Monday.
Both incidents took place in Taloda Taluka.

A 44-year-old woman farmer died in a leopard attack while working in the sugarcane field in Ganesh Budhawal village on Saturday.
The victim Lalitabai Ashok Padvi and her husband Ashok Padvi were filling water in the sugarcane field when the leopard attacked her.

In the other incident, a leopard pounced on a ten-year-old girl who was going to the field with her family in Sardar Nagar vilkage on Sunday.
The animal dragged the victim Deepmala into a maize field and killed her.
