   Four men have been arrested after one of the accused’s phones was   
   discovered to contain a video of them gang-raping a Bengal monitor lizard   
   at the Sahydari Tiger Reserve in Maharashthra, India.   
      
   CCTV footage from the Maharashtra Forest Department showed the four men   
   lurking around the forest and trespassing into the Sahyadri Tiger Reserve,   
   which was created by the Indian government in 2008 to conserve Bengal   
   tigers.   
      
   In addition to the video of the men sexually abusing the monitor lizard,   
   officials also found photos of various animals such as porcupines and deer   
   on the mens’ phones.   
      
   Bengal monitor lizards can grow up to five and a half feet long and weigh   
   almost 16 pounds. They are currently categorized as reserve species under   
   the Wildlife Protection Act of 1972.   
      
   Forest guards initially only caught one of the accused, while the others   
   fled. The remaining three were later found in Hativ village in the   
   Ratnagiri district of Maharashtra. Officials said the men came to   
   Kolhapur’s Chandoli village from Konkan to hunt.   
      
   The four hunters have been identified as Sandeep Tukram, Pawar Mangesh,   
   Janardhan Kamtekar and Akshay Sunil.   
      
   The case was taken to the Indian Penal Court to discuss proper legal   
   action and charges against the four men. According to the Indian Penal   
   Code, Section 377 states that anyone who voluntarily commits intercourse   
   with an animal “shall be punished with imprisonment for life, or with   
   imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to ten   
   years, and shall also be liable to fine.”
