"The bullocks were kept tied at the cowshed along the hillock and there was no one present at the scene. Someone noticed the fire and alerted the villagers. Three bullocks were completely charred to death, while two sustained serious burn injuries," district animal husbandry officer Shivajo Vidhate told PTI.
A complaint has been lodged by the cattle owner and the revenue department has conducted a 'panchnama' (assessment), he said, adding that the cause for the blaze is yet to be ascertained.
