Thane: More than a week after a pet dog fell on a four-year-old girl from the terrace of a building in Maharashtra’s Thane, which resulted in her death, efforts are on to trace three more accused in connection with the incident, police said on Tuesday.

The police arrested the pet owner following the incident on August 6 and are on the lookout for his father and siblings who were involved in breeding dogs, an official said.

A four-year-old girl walking with her mother died after a dog fell on her from the fifth floor of a building in the Mumbra area. The child suffered grievous injuries after the canine fell on her. She was rushed to a hospital, where doctors declared her dead.

The police registered a case against four members of a family under section 105 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS).

The girl’s mother, in her complaint, has alleged that the accused flung one of their dogs from the building’s terrace, the official said.

The accused were involved in breeding pets, and a probe is underway to find out if they had a license from the civic authorities, he said.
