pet pitbull consume beer has ignited a storm of condemnation from animal enthusiasts.
The 15-second video shows a 3-month-old puppy resisting the woman's attempts to place a bottle in its mouth. According to officials, this incident occurred a few weeks ago in Dehradun, and the footage was only recently discovered.
Dehradun police acted quickly, filing a First Information Report (FIR) at the Nehru Colony police station and invoking Section 11 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act against an unidentified individual.
The FIR stated that «the video was shared from Instagram handle kush_arden.»
The woman in question is believed to reside in Dehradun's Race Course locality and is employed at a local restaurant. Dora Animal Welfare, a youth-led animal welfare organization, expressed doubts about the video's veracity.
They acknowledged that the video was taken on August 11, and that they had been seeking to reach the woman for the previous month. Despite warnings and calls for an apology, all attempts to engage with her were unsuccessful.
In response, Dora Animal Welfare shared the video on their Instagram account and tagged the Dehradun police.
Eventually, the woman met with representatives from the organization. According to Vansh Tyagi, a member of the organization, she then erased her Instagram account.
According to an official with knowledge of the investigation, the dog in question is «owned by one of the accused's friends.» Furthermore, it is unknown whether the alcohol had any negative consequences on the pitbull's health.
Meanwhile, the dog's owner has asserted that he was not present when his friends allegedly created the video.
