In a significant crackdown on wildlife trafficking, the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI), Nagpur Unit under the Mumbai Zonal Unit, seized two leopard skins — complete with heads — and an ivory item, later identified as a wild boar horn, from two individuals in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh.

The operation was conducted on the morning of May 4, 2025, following specific intelligence inputs indicating an attempt to sell wildlife articles illegally. Acting swiftly, the DRI team intercepted the suspects at a hotel in Ujjain city and recovered the protected wildlife items from their possession.
