The summer heat is setting in, but the members of a high-rise society in Malad are forced to keep their windows shut at all times due to the fear of monkeys raiding their apartments. Society members have reported that monkeys are climbing from the scaffolding up to the 39th floor of the high-rise building and entering houses to eat food from the fridge and cause property damage.

The monkey nuisance has spread throughout the Sethia Imperial Avenue high-rise society located along the Western Express Highway in Malad East. Monkeys have been entering houses for the past two weeks. The society members say they have lodged complaints with the forest department, but were told no help could be provided. They were advised to stop feeding the primates and keep their windows shut.
