Stray dog deaths spark demand for stronger laws

Animal lovers at Andher's Lokhandwala Complex are holding a candle-light vigil on Friday evening in memory of Jai, a four-year-old stray dog who was beaten to death on March 18. On Wednesday evening, residents of Powai held a candle-light march to protest against the delay in arresting the man identified in CCTV footage as the suspected poisoner of eight dogs, including a lactating mother, near Sun City, on the evening of March 2.

The dogs were found dead in different locations between Gandhi Nagar and Sun City.

The Vikhroli Parksite police station registered an FIR against unidentified people under sections 428 and 429 of the Indian Penal Code for cruelty against animals, offences punishable with a fine and imprisonment up to two years.
