We learnt about the accident from the society security. When we checked the CCTV footage, we found out about the killing and informed the police. We also submitted all the footage to the cops. We have no clue who is this person who enters the society with bodyguards regularly.&rdquo;
A police officer from the Oshiwara police station said, &ldquo;We registered the FIR against the unknown person after receiving the footage. We found that the car doesn&rsquo;t have a number plate and it&rsquo;s a new vehicle. Three or four bodyguards and the owner were inside the car. We are tracing the accused.&rdquo;
Yadav, who is also an animal lover, said, &ldquo;I received this video from a society member, and I went to the Oshiwara police station. We learnt that the accused instructed a housekeeping employee to pack the body into a bag and he threw it into the nullah in Andheri West. The car owner or driver should have taken the dog to the hospital instead of throwing it into the nullah.&rdquo;&nbsp;
