China to prosecute three over butchered panda
23 September 2015 China
Three men in south-western China accused of selling 35kg (77lb) of meat from a panda they killed are to be prosecuted, a court has announced.
Two brothers and another man are also said to have sold the animal's feet and eaten some of the meat themselves.
Police discovered the panda's skin and 10kg of meat in a raid last December.
Panda poaching is extremely rare in China where the endangered animals are seen as a national treasure.
