In a macabre incident, a man brutally thrashed a stray female dog with a wooden stick, then threw burning embers on it before tying the almost dead dog’s hind legs with a rope and dragging it on the road behind a scooter and finally killing it by crushing its head with a big stone to take revenge for the dog having bitten his daughter some days ago.
The horrific incident took place in Guna city of Madhya Pradesh and its disturbing CCTV footage came to light today. The police have arrested the accused identified as Pappu on the basis of the CCTV footage and complaints lodged against him by several animal lovers and animal welfare organizations.
