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.

Kajang OCPD Asst Comm Naazron Abdul Yusof said that the group had lodged a police report to deny they were abusing the animals.

"A man representing the group has come forward to lodge a counter report to deny the claims of animal abuse," he said on Sunday (Jan 12).
