KUNRI:

After a recent horrific incident involving a cruel landlord who severely tortured a camel and chopped off its leg for entering his fields, a similar case of animal cruelty emerged again the province this week when another camel was found dead in Kunri tehsil with all four legs amputated.

The lifeless animal was discovered at Morjhango Turn, according to videos obtained by a local news channel. The owner, Abdul Rashid, explained that the camel, which had been sick, went to graze one day back.

"I do not want to accuse anyone," Rashid said, adding that he was trying to gather information regarding the incident.

"I have around 40 to 45 female camels. While all of them returned after grazing last evening, she was left behind alone."

Rashid expressed his distress, saying, "God knows who beat her and cut her legs. We don't know anything yet... we will see what to do next."

The incident marks the second distressing incident involving a camel in the past few weeks. Prior to Eidul Azha on June 14, a similar incident of animal cruelty was reported in Sanghar's Mundh Jamrao area.
