Men in viral video of cats being stuffed in sacks deny claims of animal abuse


KAJANG: Police are investigating a viral video showing a group of men stuffing cats into sacks outside an apartment in Batu 9, Cheras.

The video sparked claims that the men were moving the cats as there had been complaints about the animals in the apartment area.
