It was just two days ago that seven puppies were found dead inside Kargil apartments in Dwarka Sector-18. The puppies were found with their throats slit and multiple puncture wounds, following which a case was registered. Police have so far not been unable to ascertain the identity of the killer, as the lack of CCTV footage and eyewitnesses have hindered the probe.

The three puppies were found dead inside Akshar Dham apartments in Dwarka Sector 19. “Two puppies were found inside a society park, while one was found 20 metres away from the park, on a street,” Goswami said.

There are two parks inside the society with 12 guards, who also told the complainant that nothing suspicious was spotted in the early morning hours, when the deaths took place. Goswami had last fed the dogs in the evening and claimed that they were “healthy” and showed “no signs of distress”.

The carcasses were initially taken to Sanjay Gandhi Hospital. “So far, no formal complaint has been received. But we will take action after the autopsy sheds more light on the case,” Alphonse said.
