DeAnimals in Murcia continues to work hard with court cases for maltreatment of animals, plus educating the police, lawyers, judges etc on what actions to take where a case of animal neglect/maltreatment is reported.
Regular readers will remember the case of Operation Rehala – or the BULLAS rescue – where over 120 animals, mostly hunting dogs, were found living in dire conditions. DeAnimals has pursued this case through the courts and in June 2014 here are the details of the result.
Here’s the English translation.
