A lioness attacked a farmer in Gigasan village of Dhari taluka in Amreli district on Friday evening. According to forest department officials, Vinubhai Kotila, 40, was irrigating his castor farm on outskirts of the village when the lioness attacked him. The lioness pounced on the farmer from behind. However, it escaped when other farmers present in the field created a ruckus.

Kotila received injuries on his hands and legs and was soon taken to the government hospital in Dhari. Later, he was referred to Amreli for further treatment where his condition is said to be stable.
