In an unusual incident, the cops at Kheroda police station of Udaipur district, Rajasthan managed to settle an ownership dispute over a goat between two claimants, Times of India reported.
The case was reported on Monday when Babru Ravat of Dholakot village and Unkarlal Ravat from Dangfala of Masingpura village claimed ownership over a goat.
Babru and Unkarlal both had a similar coloured goat. According to Babru, he had gone to the jungle to graze his herd and one of the goats went missing. When he looked for it, the animal was found tied at Unkarlal’s home. When he asked him to return the goat, Unkarlal said it was his goat that had gone missing two months ago. The dispute intensified and police had to intervene.
ASI Chatraram, beat constable Jeevaram and Udaisingh went to the village to settle the case and asked the claimants to provide proofs. Both men said they had kids of the goat. Both the kids were left near the goat. The mother went towards the kid brought by Babru and licked it while she pushed away the other kid which belonged to Unkarlal.
The goat was then handed over to Babru by the police. The incident was witnessed by the villagers.
