Elephant named 'Laden' maybe declared rogue for killing 37
A forest officer has asked the Assam forest department to declare an elephant named 'Laden' in Goalpara forest as rogue on suspicion that he has killed 37 people since 2016. Locals said the name 'Laden' comes from the elephant's "unusually big size". He mostly attacks at the end of the month and then goes untraceable for 15-20 days, officials said.
