Telangana: 150 dogs allegedly killed by contract killer in Nalgonda

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: In a gruesome incident at Mannamidde village of Nalgonda district, 150 dogs were mercilessly killed on February 4. The dogs were reportedly killed by a man from Andhra Pradesh.
Speaking to Siasat.com, Dr. Shashikala Kopanati, an animal activist from Hyderabad said, “We got information about 150 dogs getting killed on Sunday by a man who was hired from Andhra Pradesh. The contract killer brought injections and poisons to commit this horrific act in a whole day. The killer did not even spare the small puppies, who are suckling infants that could barely move. He killed them too because he was paid Rs 150 per dog.”
Kopanati said she filed the complaint as nobody in the village was cooperating to lodge their statement on this incident. “We have been sent back as the sub-inspector was on the bandobast for a Jatra nearby and there were no police. However, he said tomorrow morning will send a team of veterinary doctors who will conduct the post-mortem and after that they will file an FIR. To date, they haven’t conducted the postmortem because he claims that the sarpanch and the village secretary had nothing to do with this. Based on the claims made by the sarpanch and village secretary the SI is refusing to file a complaint,” she added.
The activist alleged that the Sarpanch and village secretary hired the contract killers from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
“After the news was published in the media, the SI was willing to talk,” she added.
This is the 5th visit I made to Nalgonda as an animal welfare activist over the past few months in relation to community dog culls.
Contract dog killers are being hired by both Telangana and Andhra Pradesh at ₹150 per dog. They commonly use injectable poisons such as propofol, which is a human anesthetic agent. I visited last night and lodged a complaint. The SI promised to make inquiries in the morning,”

Palestinian killed by Israeli soldiers near West Bank village

[ad_1]
Ramallah: A Palestinian man was killed by Israeli soldiers near the village of Huwara south in the West Bank city of Nablus, according to authorities.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said that Abdulla Qalalweh, 24, died after being shot by Israeli soldiers at an army checkpoint near the village, Xinhua news agency.
Meanwhile, Israeli media reported that a Palestinian driving a car approached the checkpoint, got out of his vehicle, and tried to grab the weapon of a soldier before he was shot dead by other soldiers.
Israeli authorities did not comment on the incident.
The latest development comes amid a series of deadly incidents in the region.
On January 26, Israeli forces raided the Jenin refugee camp in the occupied northern West Bank and killed nine Palestinians and wounded 16 others.
A day later, a gunman opened fire on people near a synagogue at a Jewish settlement in East Jerusalem, killing at least seven people.
Since early January, some 35 Palestinians have been killed in the ensuing violence.

More than 170 Palestinians were killed in the West Bank in 2022, and at least 29 have been killed in January this year, according to figures from the Palestinian Health Ministry.
According to the UN, 2022 was the deadliest year for Palestinians since 2006.
The tensions have been further aggravated since Israel’s most right-wing government, headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, took office in December 2022.
