PUNAKHA – Ap Pasang (68), a resident of Yoesskha village in Kabujisa, Punakha, lost his only three high-bred Jersey cattle to suspected electrocution on June 26, leaving him devastated and deprived of his livelihood.
To him, these cows are not just livestock, but his own children and his only means of livelihood.
According to the victim’s neighbours, the victim’s only source of income was his three Jersey cows as he did not own any land and lived at his niece’s house in Yosha.
Apasan relied on the milk from his cows, which he sold along with butter and cheese to high-end hotels. Each cow produced 13 litres of milk a day, and the death of the cows dealt a heavy blow to his livelihood.
Zongba learned about the incident from the victim himself and informed the Kabjisa Gewog office about it.
The 48-year-old suspect, who was in Changyur at the time of the incident, was informed of the incident but did not report to the sectarian office. He denied installing live wires around his orchard.
Kabujisa Gup Sonam Dorjee expressed deep regret over the incident, calling it unfortunate and stressing that installing live wires is strictly prohibited. He announced plans to notify all 11 sects to monitor and educate residents about the dangers of installing live wires.
The incident is the first case reported in Kabugisa.
The self-employed suspect was summoned to the Punakha police station and his statement was recorded.
He admitted installing dangerous electrical wires around the orchard and has applied to the court for a warrant for his arrest.
The police also questioned the suspect’s family, and no one knew about the installation of the dangerous stun gun.
