JAGTIAL: The Raikal police are searching for a group of unknown persons who allegedly beat around 40 dogs to death using sticks at Maithapur village. On Monday, an animal activist, Adulapuram Goutham, from the Stray Animals Foundation of India lodged a complaint upon receiving information from locals about the incident.
They have registered a case under Section 11(1) of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960. Goutham said that people should not take the law into their own hands but instead persuade local bodies to initiate birth control measures for stray dogs.
