Puppy With Jaw Reportedly Broken in Brutal Attack Deserves Justice

Target: Pinarayi Vijayan, Chief Minister of Kerala

Goal: Ensure justice for puppy who was reportedly viciously attacked and severely injured.

In a heart-wrenching incident of alleged animal cruelty in Vattiyoorkavu, Thiruvananthapuram, a two-month-old puppy was allegedly brutally attacked by a man, leaving it with a fractured jaw and broken bones. The innocent puppy, simply resting next to its mother, was allegedly mercilessly beaten with a stick, and is now fighting for its life. Despite the best efforts of local rescuers and People For Animals (PFA), the puppy is reportedly in critical condition, unable to eat due to its severe injuries.

The alleged attack was witnessed by neighbors who immediately reported the incident to the Vattiyoorkavu police. A case has been registered under Section 325 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and Section 11 (1)(a) of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960. However, this alleged case is just one of many as animal cruelty continues to rise in the region, especially against stray dogs.

According to PFA, cruelty against animals is increasingly rampant in the state capital, with dog feeders also being harassed. The lack of awareness about animal rights among police officials further exacerbates the problem, as many cases are often settled without proper legal proceedings, leading to recurring violence against animals. Enforce stronger penalties and increase awareness about animal protection laws among law enforcement officials.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan,

I am writing to express my deep concern over the rising incidents of animal cruelty in Thiruvananthapuram, most recently the reported attack on a two-month-old puppy in Vattiyoorkavu. The puppy allegedly sustained severe injuries, including a fractured jaw and broken bones, and is currently fighting for its life. Locals reportedly witnessed this inhumane act, and the Vattiyoorkavu police have registered a case against the suspect.

However, this alleged incident is just one of many that occur regularly in the state, particularly against stray dogs. It is distressing to learn that despite existing animal protection laws, many cases are settled without proper legal recourse due to a lack of awareness among police officials.

I urge you to take immediate action to ensure that this case receives the full attention of the law and that the offender is prosecuted to the fullest extent if found guilty. Additionally, I ask that stricter measures be implemented to prevent future cases of animal cruelty, including educating law enforcement officers about animal rights and the penalties for violating them.

This is not only a matter of upholding the law but also a reflection of our society’s compassion and humanity. Please take meaningful steps to protect the innocent animals of Kerala.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

    Has this animal abuser been found? Surly people who witnessed this brutal behaviour upon an innocent puppy could describe the
    person responsible. Let’s hope this puppy will come through and find a forever home along with it’s mama to individuals who care.
    Sometimes I wonder whether an “eye for an”eye, or a”tooth for a tooth” would be a deterrent. It would be interesting to see how many people would continue to abuse animals!

    The good people who look after stray dogs should all band together and harass those evil brutes who attack stray dogs and puppies. Those cruel thugs are cowards and deserve all they get. Band together and stop them, make them afraid to keep attacking innocent dogs. Also, if you see it happening, then DO SOMETHING don’t just stand there and watch! Get others and attack the brute who is attacking the puppy! I bet there are more good people than the evil ones, so take action, especially if the brutes are getting away with it because the police are useless. Also, all those stray dogs MUST BE NEUTERED! The state should pay for it!
