UTD graduate student Shubhankar Kawle was sentenced to six and a half years in prison on Aug. 31 for torturing two house cats, one of which had to be euthanized due to severe injuries. 

Kawle was charged with cruelty to non-livestock animals, which is a third-degree felony in the state of Texas when it involves torture, serious bodily injury or death. Kawle was taken into immediate custody upon the conclusion of his trial at the Hunt County Courthouse, 354th District Court. 

The Hunt County police department began an investigation in October 2021 after receiving a complaint of animal cruelty at a residence in Quinlan, Texas. The unnamed source installed house cameras after noticing their cats were returning home severely injured, to the point of one cat needing their leg amputated. On Oct. 9, investigators obtained footage of Kawle kidnapping one cat and torturing it for five hours with a metal rod. The animal sustained severe injuries and was euthanized hours later.

Kawle was arrested Oct. 20, 2021 on campus by UTDPD after Texas Chief Investigator Courtney Burns filed an arrest warrant. From there, he was transported to Lew Sterrett Jail in Dallas County but was released under a bond of $50,000 shortly afterwards.

After being released, Kawle continued to work at the UT Dallas Testing Center as a proctor and contributed to research in soft robotics and control systems under professor Yonas Tadesse’s Humanoid, Biorobotics and Smart Systems Lab.
