Police have arrested the son of a retired special assistant inspector who poisoned more than 50 stray dogs in biryani in Tiruvallur.
He gave a sensational confession to the police that he poisoned the stray dogs after the dogs bit the legs of the chicken he reared at his house.
The stray dogs living in the area came to protect the people at night without any threat to the people. At night, if new people come to the city area, they are lowered to warn them and act as a security wall for the residents.
In this case, the people of the area are shocked to see that more than 50 stray dogs are dying mysteriously within the last one month. In this case A. Karthikeyan, a resident of SB Nagar, was taking care of 10 stray dogs, 8 of them were found dead mysteriously on the 21st and two of them were fighting for their lives and they were rescued and admitted to a private veterinary hospital in Perambur area of Chennai.
Among them, the 8-month-old dog named Silky died of kidney failure due to the severity of the poison, and he saved only the 11-month-old dog named Brownie after spending 25,000 on medical expenses for both dogs.
The doctor who treated the dogs confirmed that such dogs were killed by mixing strong poison in biryani.
A woman from the same area has adopted a brownie dog that was treated and rescued. On examining the residential CCTV footage of the area to find out who poisoned such dogs, they were shocked to find a person bringing biryani and feeding the dogs to death.
With the help of CCTV footage, a resident of the same area, Karthikeyan, filed a complaint at the Tiruvallur City Police Station.
On the sixth day after the dogs were killed by poisoning, on the afternoon of 27th of last month, when Rajiv Gandhi’s wife Meena, the owner of a panchar shop living in ASP Nagar, was alone at home, a mysterious person entered the house and threatened her with a fruit cutter.
While the public is afraid that the mysterious people are planning to kill the dogs and rob the houses. When the police scrutinized the CCTV footage recorded in the residential area, the police identified one such person as Vijayan Magan, a retired special assistant inspector from the same area and Vetri Vendan (43), a former executive of the Bahujan Samaj Party.
Knowing that the police were looking for him, Vetri Vendan switched off his phone and went into hiding. When the police found the contact number of his contacts through CDR, the police came to know the address where he was staying in a luxury hotel in Puducherry, went to Puducherry and arrested him and registered a case against him under section 325, 11(1)(I) of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act at Tiruvallur Town Police Station. He was brought and the investigation is going on.
In the first phase of the investigation, the pigeons he was rearing were often being bitten by stray dogs and causing trouble to the fighting cocks. He gave a sensational confession to the police that a few weeks ago, the legs of a chicken he was raising were bitten by stray dogs and he poisoned the stray dogs.
According to local people, he killed a street dog by hanging it on a pole and brutally beating it against the wall. The accused’s brother is also working as a policeman in Tamil Nadu Police. Prior to this, the accused Vetri Vendan Medical College student was convicted in the murder case and was released from jail after appealing to the High Court and released from that case.
