Uttar Pradesh couple wills estate to monkey

The couple has setup a trust for the welfare of monkeys

Lucknow: In a rare gesture, a childless couple in Rae Bareli district has bequeathed their entire property to their pet monkey Chunmun.

The couple — Sabista Brijesh, an advocate and her husband Brijesh Srivastava — has set up a Trust through which the main beneficiary of their property will be Chunmun.

The trust set up by the couple is named ‘Chunmum Trust’ and is designed to work mainly for the welfare of monkeys.

In 2010, Chunmun was married to Bitti, a female monkey owned by one Ashok Yadav.

Every year, on their ‘marriage anniversary’ the couple hosts a dinner for about 1,000 people. Apart from this, food is given to other monkeys in the area too.
