Dog brutally beaten up to death by youngsters

In a shocking incident, a pet dog named Bruno was brutally beaten up to death by three youngsters at Adimalathura beach in Trivandrum, Kerala. Reportedly, the three men lynched the dog over personal enmity with the owner of the pet. The incident came to light after a video shot by one of the accused emerged on social media. The video shows the youngsters mercilessly thrashing the eight-year-old labrador after being tied by its neck to the hook of a fishing bait of a boat. As the dog laid motionless, the accused allegedly threw its corpse in the sea.

The incident is said to have happened on Wednesday, and came to light after Christuraj, one of the owners of the dog, released the brutal video of the dog being clubbed to death on Facebook. Bruno was jointly raised by eight siblings who resided in houses next to each other. “He had been with us for eight years. Our kids played with him and he would eat from all our houses. He was family to us. It was recently that he started going to the beach. Usually, he would go and return by noon,” said Sony sister of Christuraj. After they filed a police complaint, the youths came to their house with iron rods and threatened them that they too would suffer the fate of their dog, she added. The incident has sparked an outcry on social media. The police arrested all the three accused identified as Silu Ayyan, Sunil, and a juvenile. However, they were released on bail later.
