Indian forest chieftain
Kuz Manisvami Veerappan, brutal man of medium height, every time manages to slip out of the traps that are endlessly satisfied him that the police, the opponents - the bandits, the competitors - poachers. As a professional thief he deprived of life. 138 people, mostly police officers and members of enemy gangs. Among his victims, however, came in and own infant daughter, whom he strangled with his own hands - it is not the place to cry, just at the moment when the bandits hiding in the jungle by a police patrol.
Robber with the same amulet of tiger claws on the neck, Veerappan began his career as a forest poacher. From his hands, killing at least 3,000 Indian elephants, each of them was killed by one - a single shot at a specific point behind the ear. After that, in accordance with the barbarous technology, the animal's mouth filled with quicklime, corrodes the skull, making it easy to break the precious tusks. Illegal sale of ivory, and then illegal logging and smuggling sandalwood brought Virappanu millions.
Young poacher
Veerappan was born and raised in a small village on the edge of the jungle. Specialist knocking down trees with monkeys he was before he turned 10 years old. One day, his skills were noticed by forest rangers who have beaten the boy and strictly - forbade him to engage in poaching. Unfortunately for l esnikov, young Veerappan soon caught the eye of Sevi Gonder, famed hunter ivory. Experienced poacher took the boy under his wing and helped him develop the already phenomenal abilities of the hunter and tracker. Veerappan has learned to imitate the sound of flapping elephant ears to lure unsuspecting animals and kill them one accurate shot in the head. Over the next 25 years of his life he destroyed an average of two elephants in the week, seriously reducing their number in the jungle and make a lot of money.
In 1980 their paths diverged from Gonder. Veerappan has created and ozglavil new gang activity is in the eyes of his countrymen was soon taken for - something like the exploits of Robin Hood, due to the fact that much of the money smuggled often settled in his native village chieftain and his colleagues.
Bandit disassembly
At the very beginning of his career bandit Veerappan glorified violence. Local robbers tried seldom encounter with this low spiteful man. And that was also the reason. When a cache of ivory that belonged Virappanu, was sacked one of the local gangs, Ataman revenge was swift and merciless. About Mr. kidnappers invited to a party in the woods, and when the guests arrived, they were surrounded and killed the most horrible way.
"I was seized with rage and vowed to destroy them - he said to the reporter of the newspaper India Today. - The boys lay down and have shot them all. When they fall, I went to him with a hatchet. I like turned into a tiger and without hesitation hacked them to pieces. We put body parts in bags and went down to the river. I said: These hands want my death, so I fed them to the fish. " When the members of his own gang tried to get out of the "business" and create an independent formation, Veerappan invited them to her house, where quietly interrupted, beheaded and their heads hung on the tree in the heart of the village - as a warning to those who would like to come separatist thought.
Murder in the gang environment a little worried the police until Veerappan not switched to smuggling sandalwood. Tamil Nadu - the world's largest growing area of this valuable raw material. A thousand people worked on ovek Ataman, cutting down huge tracts of sandalwood. The logs were floated down the river for the sale of contraband that allowed bail to $ 30,000 per tonne. "Brown gold" brought Virappanu $ 43 million. Income.
Part of this money was used to bribe the local authorities, so as not to interfere with "the business." In addition to money, the forest brigand provided "their" candidates required number of votes in the elections to the local authorities.
Nevertheless, the police continued to hunt for Veerappan. After the bandits killed the overseer forest, threatening to "surrender" poachers, and after him three more rangers and a whole group of police informants, his head chieftain set a price of one million rupees, and in the forest were sent new expeditions to catch the criminal. Groups of heavily armed Indian commandos who proudly call themselves "liquidators", one after another went into the jungle. Few came back ...
It is unknown how long would last more hunting if Kuz Manisvami Veerappan not threatened to name all
police officers and officials who are paid a salary within a few decades of its activities.
Shortly thereafter, on 18 October 2004, he was with three of his bodyguards was ambushed. The police jeep
surrounded by thugs and asked them to surrender. Veerappan said shots. After a 20-minute firefight, he and all his men were killed. At least, that's the official version sounded. Although many issues caused posthumous Photo
Veerappan, published by many media outlets. Clearly visible wound suggested that the legendary robber was not killed during the battle, and shot in the head. Apparently, the authorities did not want the case came to trial.
