Police said these animals were brought to Baina beach for slaughtering even as 87 animals were butchered there despite protests from residents, animal lovers and the representatives of People for Animals. The animals were brought to Baina beach in the morning as part of Bakri-Id celebrations, where animals were sacrificed.
