New Delhi: A Delhi
court has directed police to register an FIR on a complaint filed
by a doctor against Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP and animal
rights activist Maneka Gandhi and others for forcibly taking away
his eight pet dogs from his house.
"Let the FIR be registered in the present case. SHO shall proceed
in investigation in accordance with law. It is noted here that the
observations made in this order have no bearing on the merits of
the case," said Metropolitan Magistrate Rajesh Malik in his recent
order.
Rajesh Kumar Singh, a child specialist and a resident of East of
Kailash in south Delhi had filed a complaint against Gandhi and
others under various provisions of Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals Act and for theft and trespass under the Indian Penal
Code.
Advocate R.K. Tarun, filling the complaint on behalf of Singh,
contended that on Nov 26, 2012, some people accompanied by police
forcibly entered his house in his absence along with his neighbour
and took away his pets.
When the doctor approached police to file the complaint, he was
told that his pets were taken away by People For Animals, an
organisation run by Gandhi.
The intruders were acting at the behest of Gandhi, the complainant
alleged.
He further stated in the complaint that when he went to the NGO's
office, he was told that they had acted on the complaint of his
neighbour, who claimed that the dogs were in a bad condition and
that he was running an illegal breeding centre in his house.
