PETALING JAYA: An animal welfare group has called for an investigation into the alleged sexual abuse of a cat, a video of which is circulating on social media.
Persatuan Haiwan Terbiar Malaysia president Kalaivanan Ravichandran said the act, if true, would “constitute a grave form of animal abuse" that warranted stern action under the law.
The authorities should identify those involved, verify the footage, and secure all digital evidence.
“Immediate priority must also be given to locating the cat and ensuring its safety,” Kalaivanan said in the statement.
He also called for an investigation into the circulation of the disturbing footage on social media.
