Meerut (UP), Nov 8: Police in Meerut's Kankerkheda area have booked two women accused of burning alive five stray puppies by pouring petrol over them, officials said on Friday.
The women, residents of the same neighbourhood, were allegedly frustrated by the noise made by the puppies, according to locals.
