Kaithal (Haryana): A stray dog was first poisoned and then brutally beaten to death. Two persons rained lathis on the hapless canine resulting in its death. Although the case was lodged against the accused with the Anaj Mandi Police station on June 20 by Rajendra Chahal, a resident of the area. But the police achieved a breakthrough in the case that too after three months when one Rakesh alias Kesha was arrested for killing the dog. The other accused is still absconding, police said.
