New Delhi, Nov 17 (IBNS) : The Supreme Court on Thursday ordered against killing of stray dogs in Kerala, while asking the state Government to take action against the vigilante group indulging in the culling.

The group-the alumni association of a prominent college in Kerala in October announced that it would gift gold coins to civic authorities who would kill the maximum number of stray dogs.

The group also reportedly provided air guns to deal with the stray dogs.

Four persons have lost their lives and over 700 have been injured in canine attacks in the last four months in the state.

On October 26, a 90-year-old man was attacked and fatally mauled  by stray dogs at his house near Varkala in Thiruvananthapuram.

In August, a 65-year-old woman also died after being bitten by street dogs in Thiruvananthapuram.
