The web series, 'Poacher', puts Thankachy, the woman facing charges of poaching and ivory trade, back on focus.
Kolkata Thankachy
The last time officials of the Kerala Forest Department saw Sindhu CS Babu aka Kolkata Thankachy was in 2019. She then disappeared without a trace. A recent eight-part web series, ‘Poacher’, rekindled interest in Thankachy, who continued her family’s ivory trade, albeit illegally. Thankachy’s disappearance five years ago had put the brakes on a high-profile inquiry into a case.
