Nikhil, a resident of Kalapipal in Shajapur district, had left his pet, named Sultan at Ravi's centre. When he returned he was told that his dog had fallen ill and died. He became suspicious and demanded to see the CCTV footage. But Ravi said that there was no CCTV footage and Nikhil was forced to leave with the dog's body. After the burial, he could not accept that his pet, which was very healthy when he left it at the centre, suddenly fell ill and died. He went to the Misrod police station in Bhopal and lodged a complaint against the trainer.
