Rocky, the dog which was killed by Singh, the security guard
A security guard from a housing society in Nalasopara has been booked for allegedly killing a stray dog, following information by a local animal caretaker and resident of the society. The incident, which has sparked outrage among animal rights activists, prompted People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India, to intervene in the matter. The incident took place on August 26, with the animal caretaker and PETA ensuring that stricter legal provisions were applied to the case. The guard has been absconding since the incident.
Recounting the events, Kavita Anand Wakode, a resident of Sandeep Heights-Yashwant Gaurav in Nalasopara, told mid-day, “The dog, which we called Rocky, was playing with me when I went to feed the dogs in our locality that morning. Rocky was nearby when a group of other dogs started barking. I moved him away and began playing with him again when another dog came and started barking at Rocky. Suddenly, from behind me, the security guard, Singh, threw a stick at Rocky. Before I could react, Rocky collapsed and died from the injury on the spot. My dear friend suffered a painful death.”
