Dhoni incurs PETA's wrath for goat sacrifice

PETA India's chief functionary, Anuradha Sawhney, claimed that they have been flooded with calls and e-mails from people who were "horrified" by the incident. The organisation has also shot a letter to Dhoni asking him to refrain from such cruel acts in future, as the captain was a role model to his innumerable fans.
"As a talented athlete, you are a role model for young people. We hope that you will consider the enormous influence you have over the children and in the future refrain from cruel acts that your young fans might be inspired to imitate," she wrote in the letter.
Asserting that the age-old practices like sati, child marriage and cast differentiation, sacrificing animal was banned in several states and Dhoni clearly did not adhere to the law by killing the goat. Sawhney said, "Dhoni will really need divine intervention now to repair his tarnished image."
