In the GRES settlement of Aksu, Pavlodar Region, unknown individuals, according to volunteers, skinned a live dog and left it to die. Animal rights activists are asking law enforcement agencies to open a criminal case. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Kursiv Media.
Volunteers suggest that the stray dog had attached itself to one of the houses. They began looking for a foster home for it but did not have time: that same night, the animal was caught and brutally mutilated.
"In our volunteer work we have seen a lot, but such a terrible, horrific incident we are seeing for the first time. Therefore, we strongly ask law enforcement agencies to open a criminal case on the fact of animal cruelty," said animal rights activist Yulia Geld.
Law enforcement officers are awaiting the conclusion of veterinarians. On its basis, they will make a further decision.
The incident was first reported by Channel One "Eurasia". According to volunteers, the dog was stray and had attached itself to one of the houses. They tried to find a foster home for it, but that same night the animal was caught and brutally mutilated.
Animal rights activist Yulia Geld said that during their volunteer work they had seen a lot, but they had never encountered such a terrible and horrific incident. She called on law enforcement agencies to open a criminal case on the fact of animal cruelty.
Currently, law enforcement officers are awaiting the conclusion of veterinarians. On its basis, a further decision will be made.
The incident caused a wide public outcry. Volunteers and animal rights activists are calling for tougher legislation in the field of animal protection. They note that such crimes should not go unpunished, and law enforcement agencies must take appropriate measures.
This case in Aksu once again highlighted the urgency of the animal protection problem. Volunteers urge the public not to remain indifferent to animals and to report such crimes to law enforcement agencies.
Recall that previously, facts of animal cruelty were also recorded in various regions of the country. However, this case stands out for its particular cruelty and the active involvement of volunteers.
The decision of law enforcement agencies will depend on the conclusion of veterinarians. If the conclusion confirms the fact of animal cruelty, a criminal case may be opened.
This situation indicates the need to improve legislation in the field of animal protection. Volunteers and animal rights activists urge the public not to remain indifferent to this problem.
