Meanwhile, accused by some social media users of being ‘silent’ about the incident, PETA India wrote on Twitter: “We worked with the police in filing FIR against the accused. They're expected to be arrested soon! Please join us in urging the govt. for stricter penalties, for those who abuse animals.”

On Twitter, Meet Ashar, Emergency Response Coordinator at PETA India, wrote, “A FIR has been registered under Sections 34, 377 and 429 IPC, Section 11(1)(a) & (l) of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960.”

Ashar had written that he was in touch with the SP of Police and SHO Nagina Police Station.

He further added, “People who are violent often start with animals as victims and then move on to humans. This case should, therefore, worry everyone.”

"One person, Aslu registered a complaint on July 26 that his goat was gang-raped on the night of July 25 by Savakar, Haroon, Jaffar and five others whose identities are yet to be ascertained. All the accused are currently absconding," said Nagina police station in charge (SI) Rajbir Singh.

Meanwhile, the owner of the goat, Aslu said: "They took my goat to an old home in the evening. One of the accused is mental. When I told them that I will file a complaint against them, they said you can do anything that you want, we will continue to do this. They don't fear getting jailed as they claim to have contacts with big people."
