Poor puppy!
A recent video of a teen swinging a puppy in the air and slamming it on the ground several times has gone viral. According to the latest updates, the teen lives in Seremban, the capital city of the Negeri Sembilan in Malaysia.
The video has sparked outrage amongst Malaysian netizens, with many calling for him to be arrested or be subjected to legal action. According to the present Animal Act 1953, animal abusers face a fine of RM200, or 6 months in prison, or both.
We couldn’t get ourselves to watch the entire 50-second video as it is way too sad and disturbing.
