VADODARA: Jawa, the female dobermann, and the dog squad of Vadodara rural police were commended by the director general of Gujarat police Ashish Bhatia on Thursday for the major role played by the canine in cracking the gang rape-cum-murder case of Karjan police station.
The dobermann’s handler Haresh Mohaniya was given a certificate at Gandhinagar by Bhatia appreciating the training he imparted to Jawa that resulted in the arrest of the six accused. On August 17, Jawa, after sniffing a dupatta and a bottle near the victim’s body, had led the investigators to the accused around two kilometers within 20 minutes.
The 38-year-old woman was gang-raped and later killed by the six labourers on the outskirts of Dethan village of Karjan taluka. This was the third murder case in just 45 days in which Jawa had helped cops get a breakthrough.
