Security guard rapes stray dog in Mumbai's Kandivali: India must strengthen PCA Act to deter sexual crimes against animals
Aug 31, 2018 23:24:07 IST
A security guard was recently accused of brutally raping a stray dog named Bindu by forcing a sharp object into her vagina and causing a painful death. The accused, Premshankar Rai, though arrested immediately by the Samta Nagar Police Station in Mumbai's Kandivali area, was released on a bail of Rs 3,000.
Heartbreakingly, barely a month ago, Bindu had given birth to seven puppies who she was still nursing when she was attacked. Rai was arrested after an FIR was filed by local animal rights group Mumbai Animal Association (MAA).

The group also took in the pups following the crime. After People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India learned about the culprit’s release, it urged the Mumbai Police Commissioner to prevent another Jyoti Singh-like case by re-arresting the man and ensuring Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code is added to the FIR which regards rape of an animal a non-bailable offense and carries a punishment of up to ten years’ jail time. The NGO warned that Rai’s next victim could be a human. Indeed, Jyoti was infamously raped and killed with a rod.
Reports of sexual and other abuse of animals have become more common in the country. Recent cases include a pregnant goat who was gang-raped to death by eight men in Haryana, a female stray dog who was filmed being raped in Jaipur, a housing colony security guard who was caught regularly taking a female stray dog into a washroom to abuse her and a 19 year-old-boy who was caught having sex with a female stray dog in a public toilet.
Other cases of cruelty that made it to the headlines include a Bengaluru woman who killed eight puppies, Chennai medical students who threw a puppy off a roof, a young man in Maharashtra's Washim area who mercilessly beat up and killed a langur, three men who attacked a sleeping stray dog in a temple in Junagadh with bamboo until he bled to death and Vellore medical students who tortured and impaled a monkey to death. And these are just some of the many such cases.
