A TROOP of killer monkeys horrifically threw a four-month-old baby to his death after snatching him from his mother.
Dad Nirdesh Upadhyay, 25, had been on his three-story roof terrace with his wife and son when the animals took the tot.
The family had been unwinding on Friday at their home in Bareilly, India, when a gang of monkeys moved onto the roof.
Despite their best efforts to drive them away, the animals surrounded the terrified trio and continued to taunt them.
Nirdesh made a desperate bid for freedom and ran towards the stairs with his four-month-old son, but he slipped through his hands.
The dad then immediately tried to scoop his newborn baby back into the safety of his arms as his mother watched on in horror.
