Target: Mr. Kamran Tessori, Governor of Sindh
Goal: Prosecute those allegedly responsible for the mutilation of the camel and enforce stricter animal welfare laws.
In a shocking incident in Sanghar, a camel was allegedly subjected to brutal abuse by a landowner and his employees, leading to the amputation of its leg. The incident occurred after the camel entered the landowner’s agricultural field. The gruesome act was reportedly captured on video, which went viral on social media, causing public outrage.
Five suspects have been arrested in connection with the incident, and they have been presented before a district and sessions court. The camel has been relocated to a non-governmental organization’s shelter in Karachi, where it will receive a prosthetic leg.
Despite the public uproar, the police initially filed a report against unknown individuals rather than directly against the landowner. Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Ijaz confirmed the arrests and mentioned that two suspects reportedly confessed to the crime.
This incident underscores the urgent need for stricter enforcement of animal welfare laws. Take legal action against those allegedly responsible for this cruelty.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Mr. Kamran Tessori,
A recent incident in Sanghar reportedly involved the brutal mutilation of a camel by a landowner and his employees, leading to the amputation of the animal’s leg. This seemingly horrific act of cruelty has sparked widespread outrage after a video of the incident went viral on social media.
The camel was allegedly tortured as punishment for entering the landowner’s agricultural field. Five suspects have been arrested in connection with this incident, and they have been presented before a district and sessions court. The camel has been moved to an NGO’s shelter in Karachi, where it will receive a prosthetic leg.
Despite the public outcry, the initial police report was filed against unknown individuals, which is concerning. This incident highlights the urgent need for strict enforcement of animal welfare laws in Sindh.
We urge you to ensure a thorough investigation and prosecution of those allegedly responsible for this act of cruelty. It is crucial to take immediate action to prevent such incidents in the future and to protect the welfare of animals in our region.
Sincerely,
