Target: Robert Domingo, Officer-in-Charge, Angeles City Police Office, Pampanga, Philippines
Goal: Complete the investigation into a dog allegedly beaten and placed inside a water drum, supporting prosecution and appropriate penalties if cruelty is proved.
A dog was allegedly beaten on a college campus and found bleeding from the head before being placed inside an empty water drum. Circulating footage and witness allegations have raised grave concerns about the animal’s treatment. The reported confinement also requires investigation, including the allegation that it was intended to cause suffocation.
An animal cruelty complaint has been filed against a college dean and is subject to preliminary investigation. Witnesses have also alleged involvement by a janitor. The school has announced an internal inquiry.
Schools should respond humanely when animals enter their grounds. The criminal inquiry must establish each person’s conduct and clarify the dog’s fate. Demand a complete investigation, prosecution of supported charges, and meaningful consequences for any cruelty proved in court.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Colonel Domingo,
Please secure all available evidence concerning the alleged beating and subsequent confinement of a dog on a college campus. Reports of bleeding from the head and placement in a water drum demand a precise account of the sequence, duration, and consequences. We ask your officers to determine the animal’s whereabouts and condition, arranging appropriate veterinary attention if needed.
Obtain original video files, relevant surveillance recordings, and independent witness statements. Test the allegation of intended suffocation against the evidence rather than treating it as established by the reported use of a drum alone. Clarify the role of each person identified by witnesses, and provide the investigating prosecutor with a complete record. The school’s inquiry cannot replace an independent criminal investigation.
Where the findings support charges, assist prosecutors in pursuing accountability and penalties proportionate to the suffering proved. Keep complainants informed and preserve medical evidence explaining the dog’s injuries or outcome. These allegations require timely, careful work. We urge a response that protects animals, respects the rights of those accused, and makes clear through lawful action that proven cruelty on an educational campus carries real consequences.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
