Delhi`s Tis Hazari Court has sentenced a man to one year of imprisonment for throwing acid on a dog, resulting in the loss of one eye of the animal. The court said that the act shakes the conscience of the court and is bone-chilling. The incident dates back to 2020. An FIR was registered at Paharpur Ganj Police station.
While sentencing the convict, Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate (ACJM) Richa Sharma said, "The convict has committed an offence in a manner that shakes not only the conscience of this court but bone chilling as well." "The act of throwing some corrosive/burning substance, which resulted in the loss of one eye of the dog, is serious and grave. Letting off such a person with less punishment and granting any leniency to the convict will convey an adverse message to society," ACJM Sharma said in the order passed on July 27.
