Story of spains life… No one does anything

‘I was petrified. The person who did this does not have a soul, is a savage, not a person. ” Ignacio Lopez who live in the Cartagena area 48 years of age, two weeks ago discovered the most awful image, he admits the most heinous and cruel in his life: two galgos hanged from an olive tree in a plot between Torreciega and Jose neighborhood Mary Lapuerta. Only a few hundred yards from the new road linking the northern bypass the Cabezo Beaza.

“I went for a walk, as I do almost every day, very early. I’ve never been there. It was seven o’clock when I saw them. I could not believe. I dropped my soul to the ground. I do not understand how a person can do such cruelty, “

At that time, besieged so angry that he thought to pick them up, but he calmed down sufficient to telephone the Service for Nature Protection of the Civil Guard (Seprona) and communicate the situation. “I indicated my position and what I was seeing, then I was told to call to take action on the matter. Soon I was called by the Civil Guard in Lorca. Surprised I said that the area belonged to Cartagena, but they did not contact me again, “he says.

After one week, Ignacio strolled again through the same area with the hope not to see the picture a few days ago heart sank. The dogs were still there, “in a very advanced state of decomposition, and a foul smell. It could not be. “

It was then, seeing that the Civil Guard had not attended his request, but in this body he said it was not within his jurisdiction, but of the Guardia Civil.

“Since I could not let that them stay there and I asked my brother Charles to take pictures. Told a reporter for a paper and took her to the Civil Guard barracks. But so far they have done nothing. It is unfair. Someone should pay for what he has done, because otherwise he will do it again, “he predicted.

He took a photo to the barracks.

He does not know who has done such a savage act, as he describes it, but thinks it may be someone who knows the area and know it’s a busy little place.

Ignacio is a lover of nature and animals. At home he is said to have birds, cats and dogs and confesses that he has never crossed his mind to harm them, much less make a “barbarity” of that style. “They are just helpless animals who seek the love of man.”

On Saturday he returned to the scene and, tired of seeing that cruelty to the dogs “From the anger that I had contained from two weeks ago, I decided to cut the branches. The bodies are now on the floor. I think that nobody will take care of them, “he laments.

A spokesman of the Government office said the Civil Guard is not aware of the facts and do not have a written complaint.

Any bets the Seprona people involved here are hunters?!
