An animal rights NGO has announced a reward of Rs 50,000 to anyone who can give information about those who murdered 12 puppies in a Goregaon on August 28. The Goregaon police filed an FIR against unidentified persons on the same day after CCTV footage showed a group of four men around the spot where the puppies were found dead.

School kids, who used to feed the pups and their three mothers, were the first to see the slain pups in their plastic shed and informed a local activist, Swapnil Patil, who alerted the NGO, Bombay Animal Rights.
