Indian police arrest a goat for not wearing a face mask.

Kanpur police in Uttar Pradesh, India have arrested a goat without a face mask, India reported today.

Following the arrest this weekend, Bekonganj police took the goat to the police station in a jeep. The owner of the goat, who later found out about it, ran to the police.

After pleading, the police released the goat after warning the goat owner.

Saifuddin Beg, a police officer in Anwarganj, said police had seen a young man carrying a goat without a mask and had run away when he saw it. The young man could not be apprehended and the vegetable was brought to the police and later handed over to the owner.

But one police officer who brought the goat said that the goat had violated the corona locking law by not wearing a face mask. He argued, “People now put masks on their dogs, so why not a goat?” He asks.

Indian media believe that the story of the police arresting the goat has changed after it became a joke on social media.
