The Akmeemana Police said that the two youths involved in the incident of beating a dog to death with a club were arrested yesterday in the Bataduwa area of Galle.
A video showing the suspects arriving in a three-wheeler and attacking the dog has attracted a lot of attention after it was circulated on social media.
The two and the three-wheeler they arrived in were arrested by the police after the dog’s owner complained to the Akmeemana Police yesterday that the suspects had beaten and killed his dog on December 11th. They are scheduled to be produced before the Magistrate’s Court today.
