Camel attacked for entering fields in Pakistan’s Sindh undergoes surgery on jaw, leg
KARACHI: A female camel that came under a violent attack in Pakistan’s southern Sindh province has undergone surgical procedures on its jaw and hind right leg, the Sindh chief minister’s office said on Saturday, with veterinarians now focusing on restoring her health.
The owner of the camel, nicknamed ‘Chandni,’ had nominated Rasool Baksh Sheikh, Qurban Brohi and Malik Umar as suspects in his complaint to police last week, according to officials.
The three individuals crushed the hind right leg of the animal on Sept. 18 for trespassing on their fields in Sindh’s Sukkur district. Police later arrested Brohi and Sheikh, while the third accused remains on the run.
The animal has undergone surgical procedures to fix its jaw and amputate the injured leg, according to Sindh Livestock Secretary Kazim Jatoi. Experts completed the three-hour-long operation without bleeding.
