Bengaluru woman kills pet dog, keeps decomposed body in flat for 3 days
Bengaluru: A woman has been booked on charges of killing her pet dog and keeping the body in her flat at Doddanekkundi, Mahadevapura, for three days.
The incident came to light when other occupants of the apartment alerted civic authorities Thursday, saying a foul smell was emanating from the flat.
Residents said the occupant, identified as Triparna Paik, wasn't cooperating with them to find the source of the smell and understand what had happened inside the flat. With the help of local police, a BBMP veterinary doctor entered the flat and found the decomposed body of a black male labrador retriever.

A private company employee hailing from West Bengal, Triparna had settled down in Bengaluru for a long time and was living alone in the flat, police said.
Based on a complaint filed by Dr Rudresh Kumar KL, cops have booked her under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act. Police issued her a notice, directing her to appear before them for a statement.
The autopsy report of the dog read, "The possible cause of death may be slitting of the neck and fracture of ribs."
Investigation revealed Triparna had wrapped the labrador retriever's body in cloth and placed it in one of her bedrooms.

There were two more dogs in the house, police said.
"On receiving the complaint, we reached her flat on June 26, but she refused to allow us inside. With the help of police, we entered the flat and found two dogs in a pathetic condition. On asking about the third one, Triparna said she had left it outside. Knowing she was lying, we searched the room and found the carcass. She killed the dog after subjecting it to cruel treatment," Kumar's complaint said, adding, "She obstructed us from carrying out our duty.
Also, she threatened to commit suicide if we probed the case."
Police said there were strange rangoli drawings around the labrador retriever's body. "Triparna claims she tried to bring the dog back to life by performing rituals," an investigating officer said.

‘Don't know if we will wake up': Israel launches fresh new attacks in Gaza; claims 23 lives
AP file photo In a fresh new offensive, Israeli airstrikes and gunfire have claimed the lives of 23 people, including children, in the war-battered territory of Gaza on Sunday, as per Gaza's civil defence agency, reported AFP. Mahmud Bassal, the civil defence spokesman, told AFP that his services "transported 23 martyrs, including several children and women" who were killed in various locations around the besieged territory. The Israeli military told AFP it couldn't comment on the reported incidents but said its ongoing campaign aims to "dismantle Hamas military capabilities" following the group's October 2023 attack on Israel. Bassal informed that two children were killed in an air strike in their home, which was completely destroyed, in the Zeitun neighbourhood of Gaza City early on Sunday morning. A family member, Abdel Rahman Azzam, 45, told AFP that he had heard 'huge explosions' coming from his relative's house, when he 'rushed out in panic and saw the house destroyed and on fire," he said. "We evacuated more than 20 injured people, including two martyrs, two children from the family. The screams of children and women were non-stop," Azzam said. "They bombed the house with a missile without any prior warning. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Por qué está en boca de todos esta inteligencia artificial que hace dinero?

A drone strike on a tent sheltering displaced people had killed five people, including a child near the southern city of Khan Yunis, said Bassal. Four more people lost their lives in an Israeli gunfire in Rafah, also located in the south. In the Northern town of Jabalia, Ahmed Arar, 60, said that his home was completely destroyed after they had recieved a warning from a person identifying himself as an Israeli army officer. "About half an hour later, they bombed the house, and it was completely destroyed," he told AFP by telephone. Israeli offensive has claimed the lives of at least 56,500 Gazans, most of whom are civilians in the war-battered territory according to the area's health ministry. Around 1,219 people, mostly civilians have also lost their lives in Israel. Israeli authorities have informed that they would refocus on its campaign against Gaza, that it launched in the aftermath of the October 7, 2023 attack, after the 12-day war with Iran that ended with a ceasefire on Tuesday.

658 dumping spots under watch as cleanliness drive begins tomorrow
1 2 Patna: Patna Municipal Corporation (PMC) is set to launch an intensive 15-day sanitation campaign, Swachhata Pakhwada (Cleanliness Fortnight), from July 1. The initiative is aimed at promoting hygiene, raising public awareness and improving Patna's ranking in the Centre's Swachh Survekshan 2025-26. As part of the campaign, sanitation workers will clean all 658 garbage vulnerable points (GVPs) that were successfully cleared. In addition, special teams will monitor high-traffic areas to prevent littering and illegal dumping while awareness sessions will be held in residential localities to educate citizens on proper waste disposal. Municipal commissioner Animesh Kumar Parashar said the drive would cover all 75 wards. "During this period, various activities will be conducted by sanitation workers at the freed GVP sites. Civic body officials will administer a cleanliness pledge to residents. Names of 'Sadak Shatru' — people caught littering or dumping waste — will be recorded and blacklisted. Offenders will be fined between Rs 500 and Rs 5,000," he said. Parashar added, "Awareness programmes will be held daily at 19 different locations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy One, Get One Free, Up To 50% Discount, Expiring Soon Original Adidas Get Offer Undo People will be encouraged to segregate solid and wet waste and to take responsibility for keeping their surroundings clean." Rallies are planned in all six civic circles – Azimabad, Bankipur, Kankarbagh, New Capital, Patliputra and Patna City – led by executive officers, zonal in-charges and ward councillors. Awareness activities will also extend to schools, colleges, hotels and public spaces. Additional municipal commissioner Aashish Kumar said despite previous clean-ups, garbage dumping at freed GVPs continues. "This campaign aims to ensure 100% cleanliness. Alongside the pledge, sanitation workers will be honoured for their dedication. Our primary focus is public participation, waste segregation and permanent elimination of GVPs," he said. Kumar also highlighted construction and demolition (C&D) waste as a key concern. "Awareness efforts will ensure full processing at the C&D plant in Ramachak Bairiya. The goal is to raise daily processing from 10-15 tonnes to over 19 tonnes per zone. PMC operates across 19 zones." The campaign will also integrate a dengue awareness drive. "Participants will be educated on dos and don'ts. With the rainy season underway, over 500 teams across 375 sectors are spraying anti-larvae to prevent water stagnation. Each ward is being closely monitored," he said. Officials said micro-level operations would target each ward with consistent household waste collection to ensure city-wide sanitation coverage throughout the fortnight.
