12-day-old baby killed by monkey in Agra
Agra, Nov 13: A 12-day-old baby was found lying bruised and bitten on the terrace of a neighbour's house in Mohalla Kachera area here after a monkey snatched him from his mother, leaving the family in a state of shock.
According to the family, Sunny's mother was feeding him on Monday evening when the monkey snatched the infant and ran away with him.
Sunny's family members chased the monkey and later found the baby lying blood-soaked on a neighbour's terrace.
The baby was rushed to a hospital where the doctors declared him brought dead, the family members said.
Not ready to believe it, the family took him to another hospital, but to no avail.
Eco-activist Shravan Kumar said the monkeys are turning aggressive as their natural habitats have been destroyed and the green cover is steadily shrinking.
Residents said the monkeys loot, snatch and attack people, particularly women and children in Agra.
"People do not dare to go to their terraces. Those who do have sealed their homes with iron mesh cages. You cannot leave your door open or sit in the sun," a resident of Vijay Nagar colony Seema Gupta said.

Informing Pakistan ahead of Operation Sindoor was a crime: Rahul Gandhi on Jaishankar's 'admission'
New Delhi, May 17 (PTI): Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday hit out at the government for "informing" Pakistan about targeting terror infrastructure as part of Operation Sindoor, saying it was a crime and asking who had authorised it.
In a post on X, Gandhi questioned External Affairs Minister (EAM) S Jaishankar for publicly admitting that the government of India (GOI) had informed Pakistan of the action and asked how many aircraft the Indian Air Force lost as a result.
"Informing Pakistan at the start of our attack was a crime. EAM has publicly admitted that GOI did it. Who authorised it? How many aircraft did our air force lose as a result?" said Gandhi, the leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha.
He also shared an undated video of Jaishankar saying India had informed Pakistan of the action against terror infrastructure on its soil.
Jaishankar can be heard saying in the video, "At the start of the operation, we had sent a message to Pakistan, saying, 'We are striking at terrorist infrastructure and we are not striking at the military.'"
"So the military has the option of standing out and not interfering in this process. They chose not to take that good advice," the minister can be heard saying in the clip.
The Press Information Bureau (PIB), however, has debunked claims that Jaishankar had said India informed Pakistan ahead of Operation Sindoor. In a post on X, the PIB's Fact Check Unit said the minister had not made any such statement and that he was being misquoted.
Operation Sindoor was the Indian offensive against terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) following the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam.
Informing Pakistan at the start of our attack was a crime.
