Man killed by elephant while searching for missing cow in Kuala Krai

A 66-year-old man, identified as Ghazali Setapa from Kampung Pahi, was reportedly killed by an elephant while searching for his missing cow in the Lepan Kabu plantation in Kuala Krai.

Following a report received at 4 pm, police joined forces with the Department of Wildlife and National Parks (Perhilitan) and the Civil Defence Force to secure the area and recover the remains.

Mohd Khairul Anuar, Pahi Mukim chief, noted that while elephants have previously wandered into the area, it is not their natural habitat, suggesting the animal may have been lost.

The victim's body was taken to Hospital Sultan Ismail Petra for a post-mortem examination.

KOTA BHARU, Sept 10 — A 66-year-old man was believed to have been killed by an elephant while searching for his missing cow at the Lepan Kabu plantation in Kuala Krai this afternoon.

Kuala Krai police chief Supt Mazlan Mamat said that following a report at 4 pm, a joint team of police, Department of Wildlife and National Parks (Perhilitan), and Civil Defence Force was deployed to the scene.

“The team secured the area before recovering the victim’s remains,” he told Bernama yesterday.

Meanwhile, Pahi Mukim chief Mohd Khairul Anuar Mohd Nor identified the victim as Ghazali Setapa, from Kampung Pahi.

Mohd Khairul Anuar said Ghazali had gone to the plantation with his two sons and three friends to look for his missing cow. The group had then split up. One of them had spotted an elephant and a member of the group was sent to notify Perhilitan.

Moments later, they claimed to have heard trumpeting nearby, followed the sound, and discovered the victim, apparently killed by the animal.

Mohd Khairul Anuar said the victim’s body was sent to Hospital Sultan Ismail Petra’s Forensic Unit for a post-mortem.

He added that while elephants had strayed into the area before, the last such incident was two to three years ago, and this animal is believed to have lost its way as the area is not their natural habitat. — Bernama

据报道，一名来自甘榜帕希的 66 岁男子加扎利·塞塔帕在瓜拉吉赖的勒潘卡布种植园寻找他走失的牛时，被一头大象撞死。

下午 4 点接到报案后，警方与野生动物和国家公园管理局 (Perhilitan) 以及民防部队联手封锁了该区域并找回了遗骸。

帕希穆金酋长莫哈末·凯鲁·阿努尔指出，虽然大象以前曾闯入过该地区，但这并不是它们的自然栖息地，这表明这头大象可能是迷路了。

受害者的遗体被送往苏丹伊斯梅尔佩特拉医院进行尸检。

哥打巴鲁，9月10日讯——今天下午，一名66岁男子在瓜拉吉赖的Lepan Kabu种植园寻找走失的牛时，据信被一头大象撞死。

瓜拉吉赖警察局长马兹兰·马末警监表示，下午 4 点接到报案后，警方、野生动物和国家公园局 (Perhilitan) 以及民防部队组成联合小组赶赴现场。

“在找到遇难者遗体之前，救援队已经封锁了现场，”他昨天告诉马新社。

与此同时，Pahi Mukim 酋长 Mohd Khairul Anuar Mohd Nor 确认受害者是来自 Kampung Pahi 的 Ghazali Setapa。

莫哈末·凯鲁·安努尔说，加扎利带着两个儿子和三个朋友去种植园寻找他走失的牛。之后，他们分散开来。其中一人发现了一头大象，于是派了一名成员去通知野生动物保护局（Perhilitan）。

片刻之后，他们声称听到附近有号角声，循声而去，发现了受害者，显然是被动物杀死的。

莫哈末·凯鲁·安努尔表示，受害者的遗体已被送往苏丹伊斯梅尔·佩特拉医院法医科进行尸检。

他补充说，虽然以前也有大象误入该地区，但上一次发生此类事件是在两三年前，这头大象据信是因为该地区并非其自然栖息地而迷路。——马新社
