ALBAWABA - An 8-year-old child in Algeria posted images online for hanging and torturing dozens of cats, sparking a wide fuss inside the Alergian community and calling authorities to interfere, local media revealed.
Images of the torture and killing of 15 cats have sparked controversy among Algerians in recent hours. Many users have expressed their condemnation of the incident on social media.
On the other hand, animal rights activists considered the incident to be due to the lack of clear consequences for those who commit such violations under the Algerian law.
The controversy began after images of the brutal killing of cats went viral in Algeria, following the killing of 15 stray cats by a child aged only 8, who hanged them in a public square before leaving them in the street.
The scenes, recorded in Djelfa province sparked outrage among social media users, who condemned the act. Many wondered, "How could a child have done what he did?".
