Overview
- CCTV at Raheja Heights, which recorded the leopard between 3 and 4 am Tuesday, shows it roaming a parking area in Malad East.
- This is the third sighting in about a month at the housing complex, following incidents on March 17 and 18.
- Forest officers placed a cage trap with a goat as bait in the adjoining Sheela Raheja Public Park and are watching for movement.
- Society managers limited foot traffic at risky hours, added cameras, and closed entry points to the adjacent park to cut off access.
- A security guard reported the leopard seized a dog before fleeing, and local leaders plan to meet forest officials as the complex borders Sanjay Gandhi National Park, where leopards live.
