A couple in Lucknow has been booked for allegedly hitting a stray dog with an iron rod and breaking its leg in the Indira Nagar area.
The incident took place on Sunday and the case was registered on Monday on the complaint of a local resident, Vijay Kumar Upadhyay, who used to feed the strays in the colony.
Upadhyay alleged that accused Abhay Shukla would object whenever he fed the dogs. “He had visited my house a couple of days back and threatened to kill those stray dogs,” Upadhyay alleged.
He said on the fateful day, Abhay and his wife were chasing the stray dogs away from the colony.
