The official website of People for Animals (PFA), an animal rights NGO founded by BJP MP Maneka Gandhi, was hacked on Friday by a group of "ethical hackers" over her remarks made on Malappuram district while referring to the death of a pregnant elephant in Kerala. A message on the defaced website read, &ldquo;Maneka Gandhi dragged the sad death of pregnant elephant for dirty politics". Gandhi has been facing the wrath of Keralites after she tweeted that Malappuram district was known for "its intense criminal activity," especially with regard to animals. The message on the website further said the incident happened in Palakkad district and she deliberately brought up Malappuram district "to spread communally motivated false information targeting Muslim majority".

The pregnant wild elephant who died in Kerala had major wounds in its oral cavity, most likely after an explosive blast, due to which she could not eat for nearly two weeks leading to her collapse in a river and drowning, according to a post-mortem report.

This resulted in excruciating pain and distress in the region and prevented the animal from eating and drinking water for nearly two weeks. Severe debility and weakness in turn resulted in the final collapse in water that led to drowning. The report said drowning, followed by inhalation of water leading to lung failure was the immediate cause of death of the elephant.
