The incident took place in the defense area of Karachi. According to police, the news presenter was reportedly bitten by her neighbors’ dog in Khayaban-e-Shamsheer, Phase V, area of Defense, Karachi.
Her FIR has been registered on the basis of the medico-legal report. She is calling for legal action against the owner of the dog.
Meanwhile, Police have started searching for the dog and its owner.
Despite there having been at least 29000 reported cases of dog bites in Larkana in 2019, dog owners fail to control their pets.
Although people will argue that ‘an animal will follow it’s instincts,’ that logic is flawed. The difference between a domesticated animal and a wild one is that pets follow commands. That is why ‘bad owners have badly behaved dogs‘.

Teaching a pet, particularly a dog to respond to commands is the owner’s responsibility. Dogs don’t just bite out of the blue. That behavior is their response to fear, pain, provocation, teasing, tormenting, beating, or threats to their owner or territory.
It’s the owner’s responsibility to set boundaries for the dog and addressing the dog’s emotions. That is why from a legal standpoint, owners are held responsible for a dog bite.
