At least 40 buffalos were killed after they consumed toxic tomatoes in Rahim Yar Khan.
Police and local administration said that a speeding truck carrying fertilizers hit a mini truck carrying tomatoes and tomatoes got mixed with fertilizers. In the meanwhile, a herd of buffaloes moved to the spot and ate toxic-mixed tomatoes.
The locals claimed that the police and local authorities did not reach the spot despite several calls to them on the phone.
After the incident, owners of buffalos blocked the road in protest for hours before they dispersed after the local authorities assured them of compensation.
