Bhima Bawariya was arrested in 2005 following a seizure of tiger parts, is now out on bail This Monday, a team from the Wildlife Crime Control Bureau (WCCB) raided a house in Old Gurgaon and recovered a 14-foot long tiger carcass. The tiger had clearly been poached recently, but the accused killer is no novice. Bhima, a member of the Bawariya community, has been poaching tigers for decades, and though he was out on bail at the time of the latest incident, it clearly did not take him long to jump right back into his dubious profession, raising questions on whether dangerous poachers like him should be granted bail. Although the WCCB had a timely tip off, Bhima managed to evade arrest; when the team went back later in the night, they were greeted with a locked door and are now using Bhima's bills and aliases to trace him. A suspect but never formally charged in the 1988 Sariska poaching case, Bhima, along with his brother Hazari, was first arrested on January 27 , 2002. His father, most probably his mentor, was also with him. "Bhima, his father and brother, were in Karanprayag in Haryana near a bus station. There were some election campaigns on and the movements of these men were suspicious. The campaigners thought they were from a rival party and the men were then apprehended,' says Tito Joseph from the Wildlife Protection Society of India, India's premier anti-poaching NGO, adding that the men were caught with poaching tools. Clearly, this was not much of a deterrent. On August 15 , 2005, Bhima was caught with a tiger skin, 7 kg tiger bones, 500 gm tiger fat, and tiger canines. He was jailed for this crime, but, as stated previously, was out on bail when he resumed his nefarious activities. The Monday raid resulted in the seizure of tiger bones, penis, fat and an intact skeleton. Like the 2002 seizure, tiger traps, springs and other hunting paraphernalia were also found. The bones were fresh and had been salted. "It appears this poacher deals specifically in tiger fat and bones,' says Rajiv Bhartari, director, Jim Corbett Tiger Reserve. It is possible that the tiger originated from Corbett, one of India's best-protected tiger reserves, as this poacher is known to operate in the fringe areas of the forest reserve near the Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand border. Earlier this year, another poacher, Dariya was caught in the Corbett Reserve. He too had hunting paraphernalia on him along with a
