A press conference held by Petpositive and the Independent Living and Training Centre (ILTC) at the Kuala Langat District Council (MPKL) at ten this morning ended at 11am. A dozen members from both societies met the YDP Abdul Razak bin Jaafar to express their outrage at the killing of nine pedigree dogs belonging to two lawyers who are presently under criminal investigation in Banting, Selangor.
According to Francis Siva, the adviser of Petpositive and the president of ILTC the event was a huge success.
He said YDP had apologised to the group for the "mistakes made by the local council in the handling of the culling of the dogs."
Francis said that the YDP claimed that he had called the Department of Veterinary Services for help but their calls fell on deaf ears.
The YDP also told the group that it was the OCPD in the area who instructed that the dogs be killed.
However, Francis met the OCPD shortly after the press conference in the local police station and was told by the OCPD himself that he did no such thing and clarified that the police had no right to order the killing of the canines.
The press conference was covered by nearly a dozen news agencies including Bernama TV.For more updates, stick with us. You can also visit www.iltcmalaysia.blogspot.com
