Bulls For Eid Sacrifice Allegedly Kept in Squalid Conditions Deserve Justice

Target: Mr. Shamila Batohi, National Director of Public Prosecutions, South Africa

Goal: Investigate and ensure strict penalties for individuals allegedly responsible for the neglect and mistreatment of bulls, and enforce stronger animal welfare regulations.

In Overport, three bulls intended for Eid al-Adha sacrifice were allegedly kept in squalid conditions on the property of the Al Ansaar Foundation. The animals, which were not sold, were reportedly confined to a restricted area, stepping on their feces and only being fed sporadically.

Residents contacted the Durban and Coast SPCA, which issued a written warning after an inspection apparently revealed poor living conditions. Reportedly, the bulls’ owner, Continental Livestock, acknowledged the delay in removing the animals and promised to relocate them to a farm.

This incident highlights the urgent need for stricter enforcement of animal welfare laws to prevent neglect and ensure the well-being of animals. Take stringent measures to hold individuals accountable for this alleged animal neglect and ensure the welfare of the bulls.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Ms. Shamila Batohi,

A recent case in Overport has brought to light a deeply troubling instance of alleged animal neglect. Three bulls intended for Eid al-Adha were reportedly kept in squalid conditions on the property of the Al Ansaar Foundation.

Residents reported that the animals were confined to a restricted area, stepping on their feces, and only being fed sporadically. The Durban and Coast SPCA reportedly issued a written warning after an inspection revealed poor living conditions.

This case underscores the urgent need for strict enforcement of animal welfare laws. We urge you to ensure a thorough investigation and hold those allegedly responsible accountable. Immediate action is necessary to prevent neglect and protect the welfare of animals in our community.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]
