While expressing her opinion, Sara Khan said, "It broke my heart when I saw this news, it's absolutely inhuman to be doing such an act to an innocent animal. In my opinion, the lack of education is the main cause of animal cruelty. People need to be taught how to treat and live in harmony with other living beings on the planet. I've seen so many videos online of people torture animals for fun. They need to be taught that it's not okay! Animals are not toys or a form of entertainment! They have feelings, just like us!"

Speaking about punishing the culprits, the Bidaai actress said, "These people should be made to serve jail time, so such people will think a thousand times before even doing something as wrong as this."

Meanwhile, Forest Minister of Kerala confirmed that a man has been arrested for his alleged involvement in the death of the pregnant elephant. Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan yesterday, said that three suspects have been identified. Palakkad district police chief G Siva Vikram in a statement said, "The arrested man is a rubber tapper. Search is on for others."
