A man was reportedly killed by a leopard on the steps leading to Girnar shrine in Junagadh on Monday night.

According to taluka police sources, the body of a man around 30 years of age was found on Tuesday morning. It seemed he was dragged by the animal in the forest. Range forest officer Dipak Pandya who reached the spot said that body was dragged into the forest for a distance of around 80 metres. The body was sent to Junagadh hospital for postmortem.

Forest department has already put up warning signs on the steps telling people not to venture in the area in the night.
