Secretary of Livestock Kazim Jatoi visited the Comprehensive Disaster Response Services (CDRS) animal shelter in Karachi on Monday, following directives from Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah.
This visit occurred a day after a magistrate in Shahdadpur remanded six suspects into police custody in connection with the recent incident in Mund Jamrao village, Sanghar district, where a camel had its right leg severed.
In line with the chief minister’s instructions, Secretary Jatoi also arranged for an injured donkey to be transported to Karachi. Both animals are currently receiving treatment at the CDRS facility.
As per Dawn news, the Sindh government has pledged to cover the treatment costs for both animals. The Chief Minister stated that PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari is coordinating the provision of a prosthetic leg for the camel from Dubai.
