In the incident that took place on Monday, the dog was tied by its neck to the hook of a boat’s fishing bait, being beaten with heavy sticks by three persons. A case was registered against the criminals under relevant sections, said Inspector G Ramesh. “However, we have not taken the accused into custody yet as it turns out that the offenders, the youth seen in the video, attacking the dog, are all under the age of 18” he added.

The black labrador named Bruno, was jointly raised by eight siblings who were resided as neighbours. Sony P, sister of Christuraj registered the complaint to the Police. Sony who brought up Bruno for eight long years, said that she got devastated on knowing what happened to Bruno. Sony said that Bruno who loves playing with the kids of eight siblings, developed a habit of going to the beach for past few days.

“Usually he would return by the noon” Sony said. Bruno was bought to their house when he was one year old by Martin, one of the siblings. Bruno’s leash would break easily and the family members were planning to buy one after lockdown relaxation. When Bruno was missing on Monday morning, Andrew, one of the family members went to search him and witnessed the innocent creature being beaten by a number of youths.

Andrew couldn’t confront them as they were three in number and he went there alone. He was informed that Bruno laid under the fishing boat after visiting the beach and they started beating him. The youths hurled the dead dong into the sea, according to reports. Sony said that Police didn’t respond properly as one of the criminals had connections with a police officer at coastal police station.

Tragic that a state with the highest literacy rate has the least humanity rate…
Just because they were envy of Bruno's owner, doesn't mean they can kill an innocent dog. There is no ground on which they should be granted bail. Punish the three accused.#JusticeForBruno pic.twitter.com/4vfZqJYCyn
