The residents of the dense forest Villages beyond Ubeshwar near Udaipur have been shocked by three straight fatal leopard attacks in a period of two days - less than 48 hours.

While the three villages where the attacks took place fall under the Gogunda Police Station Area, these villages are merely 3-4km away from the Pipliya Hills in Ubeshwar which is in Udaipur. Pipliya is a frequented picnic outing area specially in the monsoon season and is frequently visited for the Kundal Ubeshwarji Mandir.

As per police reports, the most recent attack took place at 4PM on September 20 in Umariya village under the Chhali Panchayat. A 50 year old woman, Hameri Bhil, who was working in her fields was dragged into the dense forests surrounding her field. She was mauled to death.

A day ago, September 19, two attacks took place in two villages, viz. Undithal and Bheoriya respectively, which are nearly 3km apart. The first attack took  place at 8:30AM at Undithal, where a young girl was killed by the Leopard. The beast chewed her hand off and brutally tore up her face, back and chest, wounding her fatally. Her body was found 4km into the dense forest. The  second attack took place around 6:30PM at Bheoriya, which is 3km from Undithal and less than 2km from Pipliya, in the dense forests of Ubeshwar.  A young boy who was working in his fields was attacked by a leopard, leading to his death on the spot.

Villagers from the area protested outside the Collectorate at Udaipur, demanding security for the villages and compensation for the deceased.
