Once an elephant was gifted to a person by an elderly priest.  The Person brought that elephant home and tethered in his garden.  The Elephant stayed there a couple of days and being tethered it went out of the house. In the Front of the House there is a tea stall, the Elephant went to that shop as there are bananas, It ate the Bananas and assaulted the shop Owner.  The owner got small Injuries and went to the near by police station and filed an FIR against the Elephant for assaulting him.  

  This was the First case in India that was filed against animals. The Police searched all the stations in the town, despite they did not find a room for arresting elephant and keep it in the station.  So, the Elephant was house arrested and a police was kept to take care of it. The person who owned the elephant has to serve the police with drinks and food to the police. With in a short period the police became potbellied, the shop owner also recovered from the injuries and ran the shop as usual.  Hordes of Crowds came to see the Elephant, by those crowds the shop owner earned a lot of money.  By knowing this other merchants also came there and opened the stalls. 

  The owner of the Elephant wanted to give it to the Elderly-priest who gave it to him and getrid of this issue, but he came to know that the priest went to Himalayas and no one knows when he comes.  So, the Elephant is given to the Forest Department, by bearing the transportation cost and incidental costs.

 Thus the Elephant atlast went to the Zoo....
