The forest Department has claimed to have captured the “problem tiger” of Sindewahi on Sunday.

Since January, five tiger attack-related deaths — two in June — have been reported in the Sindewahi range, said an official. The official added that a two-year-old male tiger was spotted near the last two victims, following which an order was issued to tranquilise the animal.
