Persatuan Haiwan Terbiar Malaysia (SAFM) has urged police and the Veterinary Services Department to step in and conduct a thorough inquiry into what they describe as a case of “unjustified cruelty.”
Kopi, a black dog with white streaks which was popular with the locals, was said to have been fatally shot by local authorities on October 6, sparking outrage from animal rights activists and the general public, especially on social media platforms.
The stray dog was deemed the “big sister” to the other stray cats and dogs in the area, according to a circulating social media video revealing the tragedy.
SAFM, in a strongly worded statement, questioned the legality of the action, demanding to know who authorised the use of such force.
