A man later showed up at Samrong Nua police station to explain why they were there, and denied animal cruelty. He told police they belonged to his younger sister who cared for them at her house on Rama II Road in Bangkok. She asked him to take her pets to an animal welfare centre in Prawet district of Bangkok as she was having a new bedroom added for her children and there would be no space for them. She had contacted the welfare centre about taking care of the animals. So he put them in sacks, 1-2 animals in each, tied the necks closed prevent the animals escaping and put them on the back of a parked pickup truck which belonged to his employer.
