Officers from the Parika Police Station visited the community on January 24, at 10:30h.

“Freshly dug earth was seen in an area identified to be the burial area of the slain sheep. Further investigations revealed that several of the dogs were seen at the Chinese Restaurant,” police said.

Further, the Police Force said, the police team visited the restaurant and, on arrival, a total of twelve (12) dogs were seen in the yard of the restaurant.

“When the operators of the restaurant were questioned, they claimed not to be the owners of the dogs and insisted that they were ‘strays’.

Police said that in an effort to bring relief to the victim, the team tried and were able to catch four of the dogs with the use of ropes. The dogs were then taken to the police boat and transported safely to Parika.
