SARGODHA: A man cut off the tongue of a buffalo while another cut off the ears of his donkey in separate incidents.

In the first incident, a man cut off the tongue of a buffalo for eating his fodder near Shahpur city.

Nazir was grazing his buffaloes at Jalalpur near the railway level crossing when Bilal Faqir loaded fodder on his loader-rickshaw. Nazir’s buffalo ate the fodder that enraged Faqir and he cut off the tongue of the animal with a sharp-edged weapon.

Police registered a case and arrested the suspect.

In the second incident, one Shahid cut off the ears of a donkey and threatened its owner Bashir.

As per details, Shahid borrowed the female donkey from Bashir and returned it after a few hours after slashing its both ears. He threatened Bashir with revenge.

It is reported that Bashir about a year back had lodged a complaint against Shahid but a compromise had reached between them.

ARRESTED: A CIA team busted a four-member Ali Mushtaq Gang involved in motorcycle theft incidents along with the ringleader. Those arrested are Ahmed Sher, Mushtaq, Bhai Khan and Umeer Saleem.
