    The eight-year-old, who can neither speak nor behave like normal human beings, was found by a policeman. 

    The child was rescued from among a troop of monkeys after she was spotted by sub-inspector Suresh Yadav during the routine patrol in Motipur range of Katarniaghat Wildlife Sanctuary two months ago. 

    When Yadav tried to rescue the girl, she, as well as the monkeys, screeched at him. Notably, the girl was found comfortable in the company of the apes. 

    However, police finally rescued the child after a hard chase and got her admitted to the district hospital. 

    The girl, who can neither speak nor understand any language, gets petrified at the sight of human beings. 

    As per the doctors treating her, the girl often gets violent. She eats directly with her mouth and walks like a animal using all four limbs.
