Police in Dhanbari, Tangail, have arrested a 16-year-old boy named Asif on charges of slaughtering and selling dog meat. The arrest followed the recovery of a slaughtered dog’s head and other parts from beneath an abandoned bed at a meat seller’s stall in the town’s raw market area. The operation was conducted on Saturday by the Dhanbari Upazila Executive Officer Miz Nurjahan Akter Sathi and Assistant Commissioner (Land) Sayem Imran.
Authorities said CCTV footage from the scene helped identify Asif as a suspect. He was detained on Monday, March 29, and later sent to Tangail District Jail. Police reported that during initial questioning, Asif admitted involvement in the slaughter and sale of dog meat.
Law enforcement officials stated that efforts are ongoing to identify and arrest others connected to the incident. Another accused person with an existing arrest warrant was also sent to jail the same day. The case has caused significant public concern in the local area.
