Update
Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Senator Anny Marri has confirmed that the wounded camel subjected to cruelty is being taken care of by a non-profit organisation Comprehensive Disaster Response Services (CDRS).
She posted on X (formerly Twitter): “So grateful to @CDRSWORLD for stepping up to the help the injured camel who is now in khi. Sarah Jehangir and her team of volunteers remind us of the good in the world. 24/7 doctors at present & a prosthetic once the camel heals, is the plan of action.”
CDRS describes itself as the “Top non-profit organization and charitable, registered in the United States and Pakistan for disaster relief and projects on human and social development. CDRS responds to human suffering in emergencies and disasters, as well as serves in the development of communities in need, regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, class, location, or background.”
For animal rescue and shelter, the organisation has the “Benji Project for Animal Welfare and Rescue” dedicated to this task.

A heartbreaking incident took place in Mandh Jamrao area of Sanghar, Sindh when a camel wandered onto the agricultural land of an influential feudal lord. The angered man then told his employees to torture the animal, ending with cutting off its leg.
Social media is seething with rage at the inhumane act of cruelty. A widely shared video on social media shows the animal screaming in pain while a photo shows a man holding the leg in a room.
Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Senator Anny Marri wrote on X that the injured camel is being treated in an animal welfare sanctuary.
The owner of the camel, Somer Bhan, reached Press Club Sanghar with a severed leg in a protest against the cruel act. He stated, “The tyrant cut off the leg of a speechless animal just because it passed through his fields.”
Sanghar police registered a case against “unknown persons” instead of filing the case against the person responsible.
