My note: This is not the first time there is animal abuse. Read about Sheena,
MAYOR OF KL'S response :
KL mayor to investigate TV3 report on inhumane killing of dogs and cats
except ... "Members of the public are crying foul over the way stray dogs and cats are allegedly killed at the the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) animal pound in Setapak.
This is in reaction to the visuals shown over a TV3 programme 360° on Wednesday night.
The visuals which were captured with a hidden camera showed a pound worker dragging a dying dog with a loop around its neck.
To make matters worse, the “execution” was watched by another terrified dog waiting in line for its turn to be killed.
In the programme two people, who had brought the matter to the attention of the television station, said the dogs’ necks were fractured and cats were drowned or clobbered to death at the pound......
Meanwhile, when contacted Kuala Lumpur mayor Datuk Ahmad Fuad Ismail said he would not condone such cruelty.......
He said the right procedure was to euthanise stray cats and dogs intravenously as opposed to wringing or breaking their necks.
“If the pound had run out of the drugs needed for euthanasia, they should keep the dogs and feed them until the drugs arrive,’’ added Ahmad Fuad...... "

i was in shock after i watched the show a minute ago. i was in tears. i hugged my dog as i was watching 360.
i can't believe that happened in malaysia! i'm ashamed on you, DBKL!!!
I hope the Mayor will keep his word and do something about it. Even if it's their contract workers doing the killing, DBKL is responsible to ensure proper euthanasia of strays.
I guess to have a greater changes taking place, there should be more peacefull protest coming in to speed up the action from the mayor. This would pour more pressure on the authorities and people will think twice before it is repeated all over again
I'm really ashamed to call myself a Malaysian !!!
Now at Majlis Perbandaran Selayang they r rope strangling and clubbing stray dogs. Half unconscious they r dragged into a van with around a hundred others, to the dog compound Thn starved and dehydrted for one week If no owner claims them thy are given deth injections!!!
