Police have initiated action in 12 cases of violence against dogs in the Kathmandu Valley over the past month, a significant change from previous years when such incidents were dismissed. Animal rights activist Bishwa Ram Karki noted that complaints are now being formally registered, suspects are being held, and cases are proceeding to court under the Muluki Criminal Code, which treats cruelty to animals as a criminal offense.
