In Noida, Uttar Pradesh, a guy was detained after driving over a rodent with his motorbike.
In a viral video of the event, Matloob Ahmed (25), can be seen continuously stomping the rat with the two-wheeler's wheels.
The offender was accused by the police of a crime that might be prosecuted under Section 151 of the CrPC (Code of Criminal Procedure).
Matloob Ahmed will appear in court after being produced.
A man was arrested for drowning a rat after attaching it to a wall in Budaun last year in a case similar to this one.
When animal rights activist Virendra Sharma recorded the entire encounter and reported the perpetrator, Manoj Kumar, the strange episode came to light.
