Sunil Korade, a man residing in Panvel, had inhumanely kept two of his pet dogs confined to a cage. In a complaint about animal cruelty, activists learned that the dogs were caged for four years under all conditions. Sadly, the pets were treated without care. They were forced to urinate, pass their stools, and rest inside the same cage for the long years. When informed about the case, PFA Mumbai President Vijay Rangare visited the spot and took necessary action.
