KARACHI:
The Sindh government on Wednesday rounded up and culled a significant number of stray dogs in Karachi following reports of their rising population in the city.
The dogs were laid out in the hot sun after being killed and then dumped in a rubbish pile, Daily Mail reported.
The campaign was launched at least three years ago after officials receiving several complaints of dog bites.
These animals are generally shot dead or fed poisoned meat on the orders of the authorities.
