'Yes, Osama Has Finally Been Killed and It Took Us 20 Bullets to Silence Him'

It's true. Osama bin Laden is dead.

AN elephant named "Osama bin Laden" that has killed more than 11 people and injured dozens over the past few months was shot dead in eastern India, officials said today.

The wild male elephant had been terrorising villagers in two states, destroying their crops and homes.

Forest officials and a police team tracked down the rogue jumbo in the eastern state of Jharkhand late yesterday, where it was shot dead, Ravi Ranjan, a senior government official said.

"Yes, Osama has finally been killed and it took us 20 bullets to silence him," Mr Ranjan told Reuters from Jharkhand today.
