A heartbreaking incident took place in Mandh Jamrao area of Sanghar, Sindh when a camel wandered onto the agricultural land of an influential feudal lord. The angered man then told his employees to torture the animal, ending with cutting off its leg.
Social media is seething with rage at the inhumane act of cruelty. A widely shared video on social media shows the animal screaming in pain while a photo shows a man holding the leg in a room.
Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Senator Anny Marri wrote on X that the injured camel is being treated in an animal welfare sanctuary.
The owner of the camel, Somer Bhan, reached Press Club Sanghar with a severed leg in a protest against the cruel act. He stated, “The tyrant cut off the leg of a speechless animal just because it passed through his fields.”
Sanghar police registered a case against “unknown persons” instead of filing the case against the person responsible.

US banking giant Wells Fargo has fired dozens of employees following claims that they were faking keyboard activity to fool the company into thinking they were working when actually they were not, reveals BBC.
In a statement, Wells Fargo said staff had been fired or had resigned “after review of allegations involving simulation of keyboard activity creating impression of active work”.
“Wells Fargo holds employees to the highest standards and does not tolerate unethical behaviour,” it added.
The investigation was conducted when new rules recently came into effect in the US, according to which brokers working from home must be inspected every three years.
However, is not yet clear how the issue was discovered or whether it was specifically related to people working from home.
Since the work-from-home model has gained popularity post-pandemic, some large companies have been using increasingly specialised tools to monitor employees.
Such services can track keystrokes and eye movements, take screenshots and log which websites are visited.
Technology has also evolved to detect the so-called “mouse jigglers” which are aimed at making computers appear to be in active use which are widely available.
About 13 percent of full-time employees in the US are fully remote, and another 26 percent enjoyed a hybrid arrangement, according to the BBC.

Popular actor Yashma Gill really loves spending time with her best friend and ‘sister’ Hania Aamir. She talked very positively about Hania in an interview with former supermodel Frieha Altaf on her podcast ‘FWhy’. Yashma said that Hania has always been there for her when no one else was.
“She’s like my sister,” Gill said when asked if the actor from ‘Mujhe Pyaar Hua Tha’ is her current best friend.
“She’s funny, but she’s also very sensitive. I don’t know if people know this because they see her funny and bold side on social media. She’s someone who always advises others on how to be happy, but she herself is very sensitive. She’s very human.”
“Even though she’s younger than me, she’s much more sensible, and actually, she’s like my therapist,” remarked the actor from ‘Tere Ishq Ke Naam’.
Recalling a recent incident, where Aamir spent the entire night with Gill while she underwent surgery, she added, “She was the only one who stayed with me the whole night. I’ve always said about Hania that she might skip random plans and hangouts sometimes, but when she knows you’re really in trouble, she’ll be there for you.”
“I remember I didn’t even tell her about my surgery because I wasn’t in a state to inform anyone and was rushed to the hospital. But my house helper informed Hania. She came and stayed the whole night in the hospital room with me, even though she had a shoot the next morning,” Gill explained. “Not many people would do that.”
