Dubai : A 40-year-old man who allegedly sodomised a female stray dog, in the Indian state of Maharashtra’s Thane district, last week, was arrested only after tweets about the incident went viral. Indian news websites reported the incident on Saturday, and angry Twitter users, and animal rights activists are sharing the story, calling it a “heinous incident of animal cruelty”.
Many also highlighted the delay in police action in this case and other such cases, and wondered if enough seriousness was given to animal rape cases in the country.
Reportedly, the incident took place on a footbridge at Wagle Estate, at around 4:30pm on Tuesday.
