Target: Uttam Prasad Sharma, District Government Attorney, Morang District, Nepal
Goal: Locate, arrest, and prosecute the accused for alleged sexual abuse and torture of dogs under Nepal’s criminal law.
A deeply disturbing incident has emerged from Biratnagar after a violent video circulated on social media allegedly showing a man sexually abusing a dog. The footage has triggered widespread public outrage and raised serious concerns about animal cruelty, public safety, and enforcement of existing laws. The suspect, identified as 60-year-old Dal Bahadur Rai, is apparently absconding, and police have intensified efforts to locate him.
According to reports from local residents and animal welfare activists, the abuse occurred repeatedly over a six-month period. The accused is reported to have brought multiple dogs to his residence, administered sleeping tablets to incapacitate them, and subjected them to sexual abuse before releasing them. Activists stated that the conduct was known in the neighborhood but went unchecked until video evidence surfaced. It has also been alleged that the dog shown in the video was pregnant, further intensifying concern.
Following the public release of the footage by journalists and animal rights advocates, the suspect reportedly fled Biratnagar. Police believe he may have traveled toward Ilam, though his mobile phone has been switched off. Animal welfare organizations have deployed teams to assist law enforcement and have filed formal complaints seeking criminal prosecution.
Such alleged acts represent extreme cruelty and pose a serious threat to society. This petition calls for decisive legal action to ensure accountability, justice for the animals, and deterrence against future offenses.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Government Attorney Sharma,
We are writing to express grave concern regarding allegations that a resident of Morang District repeatedly sexually abused dogs over an extended period, as documented in a video that has circulated widely and caused significant public alarm. According to reports, the accused incapacitated dogs using sleeping tablets and subjected them to sexual abuse, causing severe suffering and harm.
Animal rights activists and local residents have stated that these acts reportedly continued for months and only came to light after video evidence was made public. The suspect is apparently absconding, raising serious concerns about evasion of justice and the potential risk of further harm to animals and the community.
We respectfully urge your office to prioritize this case, coordinate closely with law enforcement to locate and arrest the accused, and pursue prosecution under the relevant provisions of Nepal’s Criminal Code, including sections addressing sexual abuse of animals and acts of cruelty. Strong and timely action is essential to uphold the law, protect animals, and affirm that such conduct will not be tolerated.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
