About Another Incident

A few days ago, a Mumbai police constable rescued a 9-foot-long python from a duct outside a park in the city’s Dharavi area. A video of the rescue went viral on social media, and the city police also uploaded it on their X account.

A worker spotted the snake during wire repair work inside an internet duct near Dharavi depot on December 13, a police official said. After being alerted, constable Sachin More, who is also a trained snake rescuer, rushed to the spot. He rescued the python and handed it over to the forest department, a police official added.
