NHRC finds negligence of authorities in dog attack case at AMU, recommends relief of ₹7.5 lakh

The NHRC on Friday said it has found "negligence" by authorities in a stray dog attack incident that took place last year on Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) campus that killed a 65-year-old man.

In a statement, the National Human Rights Commission said it has recommended payment of a relief amount of ₹7.5 lakh to the next of kin of the victim.

Safdar Ali Khan was mauled to death by a pack of street dogs when he was out on a morning walk in a park inside the AMU campus last year in April.
