The ghastly crime was ordered by a resident on the second floor of Turf View building in Nehru Planetarium on July 24. Mr Bhatia instructed the watchman to thrash the dog so that no other animal dared to enter the building premises. Acting on Bhatia’s instructions, the watchman beat up the dog ruthlessly, leaving it to suffer in the society’s compound.

Bombay Animal Rights on July 27 lodged an FIR with the Worli police against the two accused, Mr Bhatia and the security guard of the building, under IPC sections 429 and 34. However, the two were granted bail immediately.

The dog, who has now been named Lucky, is being treated at the Crown Vet clinic. Let’s hope it recovers soon.
