Video - Another case of Animal abuse in Egypt, Dog dragged to death behind car. (ES).

A helpless dog is tied to the car and dragged along the rough gravel of a Cairo road by an unidentified person.

Captured on film, the dog’s lifeless body is seen dragged at high speeds by the individual in an old Mercedes. 

This is the second brutal incident of animal abuse captured on film within just two weeks.

Last week, Max was the latest of many other victims of the utter ruthlessness of many in Egypt’s society against animals. While people on the street watched and some cheered on, Max was stabbed, slaughtered and then bludgeoned to death with a metal pole by three men.

However, according to article 357 in the Penal Code, a person responsible for the death of animal with no “just” cause could face up to six months in prison or a 200 LE ($US 25) fine. That’s it. That’s what an animal’s life is worth in Egypt. Let that sink in for a minute. 

Activists and non-activists joined hands in a stand of solidarity during a protest addressing violence towards animals. The protest was not only aimed to shed light into the severity of animal abuse in Egypt but the inevitable ending it leads to.

According to the American Psychiatric Association, animal cruelty is a guaranteed pathway to violence towards people – which is not a surprise to anyone living in this country, especially women.Read the full story here.
