2. On Monday, it was reported that 21 dogs from a plush Mira Road locality were poisoned to death by an unidentified person. After filing a police complaint and probing for 48 hours, the locals managed to identify the man from the CCTV footage of the area as Shamlal Badal, owner of a pig slaughterhouse.
3. While the complainants have submitted the evidences, including the CCTV footage and two eye-witnesses, the police is yet to take him into custody.
4. The residents also suspect that Badal may have carried out more such mass killings and poisoned dogs in the past as well.
5. The Navghar police have claimed that the CCTV footage wasn’t clear and asked the complainants to get clearer CCTV evidence. On the other hand, Badal’s family have asked the complainants of forgiveness on the grounds that Badal is not medically fit.
