The Minister of Fisheries in India’s Jammu and Kashmir state has ordered a second inquiry into a likely poisoning incident that caused the deaths of more than 2,200 trout at a state-owned aquaculture pond in Bandipora. The Rising Kashmir reported earlier this summer that an initial investigation, conducted by the assistant director of fisheries, determined the poisoning was intentional and likely the work of four disgruntled employees of the fisheries department. However, no subsequent action was taken against the suspects. State Minister for Animal, Sheep Husbandry and Fisheries Abdul Gani Kohli announced the setting up of a second team that will probe the cause of the unnatural deaths of the fishes in government ponds. The new team that was formed will also look into the potential that other fisheries department officials are responsible for scuttling the probe, the minister said.
