Unusual Theft Shocks Kailashahar: Pet Dog Stolen, Slaughtered, and Sold as Meat in Irani Area

Kailashahar, Unakoti District – August 2, 2025:

In a deeply disturbing and unusual case of theft, a pet dog was allegedly stolen, slaughtered, and its meat sold—sending shockwaves through the peaceful Hirachhara ADC Village under the Irani Police Station of Kailashahar subdivision.

The shocking incident came to light when Rajarama, a resident of Ward No. 1 in the area, found his beloved pet dog missing last Thursday. Investigations and local accounts reveal that three individuals—Pintu Das, Borobabu Bagti, and Mangal Munda—allegedly captured the dog under the cover of darkness and took it to one of their homes, where it was killed and partially consumed.

The remaining meat was reportedly sold in the Halam Bari area.

Further adding to the horror, the dog’s severed head was dumped into a nearby pond. However, in a bizarre turn, one of the accused allegedly retrieved the head and returned it to Rajarama, claiming innocence and denying involvement.

Following a written complaint from Rajarama, a team from Irani Police Station, along with OTS personnel, swiftly responded and apprehended two of the accused. Investigations suggest the individuals may also be involved in other animal theft cases, including goats and cats.

This inhumane act has sparked outrage among animal lovers and plantation workers in the locality, many of whom are demanding strict and exemplary punishment for the culprits. The incident has caused widespread concern and anger in the Hirachhara ADC Village, as locals struggle to come to terms with the gruesome and inhuman act.

Rajarama is now seeking justice through proper legal channels, while the case continues to gain attention across the region.
