A Bengaluru woman was booked for allegedly killing eight puppies that were born in a drain near her house in north Bengaluru.
The woman, identified as Ponamma, allegedly flung the puppies onto a boulder. Residents are haunted by the memory of the dog digging her 15-day-old puppies out of their graves and trying to nurse them.
While seven of the puppies died the same day, one that survived the brutality succumbed the next day.
“My neighbour and I had an argument with the woman. We told her what she did was a grave sin and so cruel. The puppies did no harm to her, and she had no right to kill them in front of the mother,” the complaint said.

“My neighbour and I had an argument with the woman. We told her what she did was a grave sin and so cruel. The puppies did no harm to her, and she had no right to kill them in front of the mother,” the complaint said.She added, “The police should have immediately arrested because that woman is a threat. They are supposed to take action. There is law. You cannot be cruel. That woman should be socially ostracised so that she knows the pain.”
“Can I kill them this way? There were seven pups, two lay dead here, I just saw them and left them there. The other two were taken away by their mother. Yes, I left the dead puppies, the second day, she left the dead puppies here. When the BBMP car came, I put the dead puppies there. These people are irritating me,” she said.
“The accused was arrested and released on bail. We have procured CCTV footage and are putting together evidence. The investigation is on and the chargesheet will be submitted,” said B Aiyanna Redddy, police inspector, Peenya, revealed.
