In 1993 five fake horns made of buffalo and cow horn were intercepted in Chitwan and Nawalparasi Dts., along with their maker who lived in Gorkha Dt. He had sold them to five people at NRS 1,000 ($22) each; all the people involved were arrested as it is illegal to buy and sell fake rhino horns because of fraud.
