 In 2000, Zanjeer, a Mumbai Police dog, was was honored with a full state funeral when he died.


During the time of the 1993 Bombay bombings in March, Zanjeer helped avert at least three more attacks in Bombay, Mumbra, and Thane.



The first incident happened on 15 March 1993 when Zanjeer alerted his handlers to a scooter bomb on Dhanji Street that contained RDX explosives and gelatin sticks. 


He was then called to the scene of ten unclaimed suitcases outside the Siddhivinayak Temple where the dog detected three Type 56 rifles, five 9-mm pistols, and 200 grenades marked "Arges 69". 


Days later, Zanjeer investigated two suitcases at the Zaveri Bazaar that contained nine Type 56 rifles.


Over the course of his career he detected more than 2,329kg of explosives, 249 hand grenades, and 6406 rounds of live ammunition.


Zanjeer developed bone cancer and died in November 2000.
