Sabah Animal Welfare Enactment 2015 applied to 3 cases of animal cruelty to date. [Newspaper] (2017)



Abstract

The Sabah Animal Welfare Enactment 2015 has been used against three cases of animal cruelty since the new statute was passed in the state cabinet two years ago. The first case involved a plantation supervisor, who was last year sentenced to nine months in jail for hanging a dog to death in Lahad Datu. Two other cases concerned an individual torturing a dog by feeding it 32 needles and another who shot needles and bamboo arrows at dogs and cats. State Veterinary Services and Animal Industry Department director Dr Nasip Eli said these two particular cases were, however, still pending.
