Indian courts throw out monkeys


India's Supreme court has ordered captured monkey's on the streets of Delhi to be transferred to forests in Madhya Pradesh.

The monkeys have been terrorising the local community for many years, stealing food, binge drinking, stealing cars and hanging around the local temples in 'gangs'. In one incident horrified bureaucrats had their top secret documents ripped up by one gang calling themselves 'the banana bunch'. One gang member spoke to our reporter "What do they expect us to do? There are no jobs for us except for organ grinders assistant or a bit part at the local zoo. Both jobs only pay peanuts, and I only like grapes". In a future report, we look at the plight of the Delhi monkey-catchers.









On hearing the news one local gang member looked visibly shaken.
