Five-year-old Raiba Sheikh’s family in Bhiwandi has had the worst two days of their lives, as their only daughter has now been admitted to Thane’s civil hospital after being brutally attacked by a rabid dog. Her uncle Imran Sheikh said the doctors had told the family she would have to undergo surgery.
“Her father is an auto-rickshaw driver. It happened while she was near a municipal school in Shantiwadi. Suddenly, she was attacked by the dog, which went on to bite more people, running all the way to a nearby masjid,” he said.
