In a shocking incident, law enforcement authorities in Tripura have arrested Bador Jamatia, a young man from Teliamura, Khowai district, for brutally killing a puppy and sharing the gruesome act on social media. According to sources, the arrest was made by officers from the Teliamura Police Station, and Jamatia is set to be produced before the court tomorrow.
The disturbing video sparked widespread outrage, prompting a massive backlash across social media platforms. Netizens and animal rights activists demanded swift justice, prompting authorities to act swiftly against the accused. The Tripura Animal Resources Development Department (ARDD) Minister, Sudhangshu Das, strongly condemned the act and instructed the police to take immediate action. Two animal rescue NGOs, Pawsome and K-Nine, filed general diary (GD) entries at different police stations, seeking urgent intervention.
Royal scion and founder of Tipra Motha, Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma, also lodged a formal complaint, urging the police to ensure strict action against the accused. “We launched an investigation immediately after receiving the FIRs and spent three days intensively searching for the culprit.

The case has sparked a massive public outcry, with many calling for harsh punishment for the accused. The police have taken adequate measures to address the situation, and Jamatia’s arrest is seen as a step in the right direction.
