We don't technically know if he was openly making a move against the monkeys, but we do know that he was a politician that they wanted to get out of the way:

The deputy mayor of the Indian capital Delhi has died a day after being attacked by a horde of wild monkeys. SS Bajwa suffered serious head injuries when he fell from the first-floor terrace of his home on Saturday morning trying to fight off the monkeys. The city has long struggled to counter its plague of monkeys, which invade government complexes and temples, snatch food and scare passers-by... One approach has been to train bands of larger, more ferocious langur monkeys to go after the smaller groups of Rhesus macaques.

Human beings are dealing with the threat of a monkey rebellion by training "bands of larger, more ferocious monkeys." Who - exactly - is supposed to be in charge around here?

The geostrategic question of the second half of this century: when the monkey hordes go to war with the jihadists over control of Europe, which side will the robots join? We're thinking the monkeys. [Via]
