The Middlepits police station investigation team is now gearing up to prepare a watertight case by sending two lions carcasses and their leathers for scientific examination.

Last Sunday, during their regular stop, question and search patrols the police nabbed four men for poaching lions. The quartet was arrested in possession of lion bones and skins in their car between Middlepits and Bogogobo villages.

In an interview, Middlepits station commander, assistant superintendent Batani Lehuma said investigations on the matter are ongoing and they will ensure that this case reaches its logical conclusion.
