S Satish, a Bengaluru-based dog breeder, recently captured national attention after claiming he had purchased the world’s most expensive wolfdog, named Cadabomb Okami, for Rs 50 crore. According to him, the animal was a rare hybrid between a wild wolf and a Caucasian Shepherd. His claim was accompanied by viral videos and widespread media coverage. However, the story has now taken a dramatic turn.
ED Investigation Confirms Fabricated Claims
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has revealed that Satish’s sensational story was a fabrication. Following initial suspicions raised by OneIndia’s verification, the ED launched a formal probe, investigating his financial records, income sources, and GST filings. A raid at his Bengaluru residence confirmed that the Rs 50-crore price tag was entirely false.
Officials discovered that Satish had been borrowing dogs from other breeders, producing viral videos, and falsely portraying them as expensive exotic imports. No valid import documents were found, and the so-called foreign dogs were in fact local breeds presented as rare international species.
Legal Action Underway
The ED has initiated legal proceedings against Satish for spreading misinformation and possible financial discrepancies. Investigations are still in progress, and authorities are examining the full extent of the deception and financial irregularities.
Profile of S Satish
Satish identifies himself as the president of the Indian Dog Breeders’ Association. Though formerly an active dog enthusiast, he reportedly no longer keeps dogs but has continued to claim ownership of rare breeds.
He monetised his claims by showcasing dogs at events, reportedly charging Rs 2.46 lakh for a 30-minute appearance and over Rs 10 lakh for longer exhibitions. Defending the high-profile claims, Satish stated, “This dog is rare, and people are always excited to see it. I attract more attention than a movie actor.”
His residence, a seven-acre property with 10-foot walls and round-the-clock CCTV, was said to be designed to protect his so-called prized canines.
What Lies Ahead
As the ED’s probe continues, more details are expected to emerge. For now, the case of S Satish highlights the power of social media to create viral narratives and the risks of misinformation in the pursuit of fame.
