The distressing footage, which circulated on a microblogging platform X, has sparked intense backlash and demands swift action against the perpetrator.

The video begins with the man holding the leash of a golden retriever inside a lift. In a series of harrowing scenes, the man can be seen striking the defenceless animal with an object, inflicting pain and causing the dog to react in distress. As the video unfolds, the disturbing scene persists, with the man resorting to increasingly violent measures against the dog. In a display of aggression, the man can be seen using the object to block the dog's snout, restricting its ability to defend itself. The man persists in delivering blows with his fist, further exacerbating the dog's suffering.
