In a deeply disturbing incident reported by an animal welfare page on social media, 13 helpless newborn puppies were forcefully separated from their mother. The puppies were illegally relocated far from Amrapali Golf Homes, Noida West, according to an Instagram post by 'Street Dogs of Bombay'.
The page shared CCTV visuals from the act and openly revealed the identity of people involved in ripping away the young ones from the mother dog in Noida. The shocking act was allegedly carried out by a person named Abhishek and his team, who were spotted on camera carrying the puppies in a huge drum.
CCTV photos showed around 2-3 men relocating the puppies by stuffing them in a large trash bin. The people walked through the building corridor and entered the elevator with the puppies, reportedly taking them away from their mother.

In one image, one of the men, was seen pressing an elevator button while holding the container carrying one puppy inside. The second image, taken from a different angle, captured the moment when the puppies tried peeping out purportedly trying to escape and reunite with the parent dog.
Instagram account 'Street Dogs of Bombay' brought the incident to light, calling it “A Mother’s Worst Nightmare.” Their post described the immense suffering of both the newborns and their mother.
“Can you imagine the terror these tiny souls felt? Cold, hungry, scared—left to die with no one to comfort them. And their mother? Crying, searching, helplessly waiting for her babies who will never return,” the post read.
According to the post, Abhishek has admitted to the crime.
Police investigation underway
Activists and animal lovers on Instagram raised their voices seeking justice for the voiceless puppies and demanded they be reunited with the mother dog. Following the outrage on social media, the local police issued a statement on this matter.
