By Okorie Chioma - June 14 2018
A sleeping dog had burning hot tar poured over him by road workers as they were laying a road.
The dog was then flattened by a road roller by the workmen who have been branded inhumane.
Their actions have faced staunch criticism with many asking why they didn't take the time to wake the pooch, or chase it off.
The horrific incident took place in the town of Agra, India, famed for being home to the magnificent Taj Mahal.
Locals were so incensed by what had happened they protested at the Sadar police station in the town demanding action against the "dog killers".
Social activist Naresh Paras told the Press Trust of India: "A fresh layer of coal tar was being laid on the road from Phool Sayyed crossing towards the Circuit House and the Taj Mahal.
"A dog was sleeping on one side of the road.
"Instead of chasing the animal or removing it physically, burning coal tar was poured over it.
