A 60-year-old man was booked by the Dombivli-based Tilak Nagar police for allegedly putting a female dog through bestiality for the past two years at his residence. The incident came to light after a few children made a video of him in the act, and shared it on social media. 


Rekha Redkar, an animal lovel, received this video on her WhatsApp. She immediately informed the police. Even as the accused managed to escape from the area and is currently absconding, the Dombivli police has registered a case against him and has started their investigation.
