Noida: A viral video has landed a minor in big trouble in Delhi. The boy was seen stabbing a street dog in the video and Delhi Police took cognizance of the incident and registered a case for cruelty against animals. Here's the story behind it.
A dog was trying to eat meat from a meat shop in Thane beta-2 area of Greater Noida. This annoyed the shop owner, who wanted the dog shooed away. Hence he asked his nephew to give it a light beating.
