A man was arrested on Wednesday after CCTV footage allegedly showed him brutally thrashing street dogs in Bajghera area here, police said.
Police registered an FIR based on a complaint by an animal rights worker who said the accused Hoshiyar Singh thrashed the dogs brutally and threw him from the roof of his house.
"On June 1, the accused took two dogs from the road to his house and brutally thrashed them and threw them on the road from the roof," Anubhav Sharma said in his complaint.

Singh, a resident of New Palam Vihar Phase 1, has also killed two other dogs in May, Sharma said in the complaint.
