Source­s say owners inflic­ting tortur­e on animal­s often go unpuni­shedMULTAN: Cruelty to animals especially donkeys, horses and mules, goes unchecked in South Punjab for last two years and the process of submission of challans on torturing animals has almost been stopped. According to official sources, there had been some punishments for cruelty to animals but nowadays, the punishments had been stopped. The owners of equines did not dare to inflict torture on their animals. These initiatives would help to rejuvenate Society for Protection of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) in an amicable way, he added. Responding to a treatment facility for equines, SPCA official said that they had treated 123 horses, 395 donkeys and 15 mules in January, 2018.
