Court’s stance on the killing of a cat should be encouraged
KARACHI: A latest news story comes as a surprise in Pakistan — a country where animal rights are barely paid heed. A local court in Karachi has directed the police to register a case against a woman who crushed a cat under her car. The court went on to call it a murder case.
The court’s stance on the killing of a cat should be encouraged, especially considering that almost on a daily basis car drivers run over animals ruthlessly in this country. And it is time that such humans were taught a lesson. Animal lives are also lives and they matter.
