Hungarian couple arrested in England for torturing then killing their own dog
Change language:
Two Hungarians beat, poisoned, then killed an American bulldog in Birkenhead, England. The couple was soon sentenced for 10 weeks in prison. They are also banned from keeping animals ever again.
RSPCA News reports that a Hungarian man and a Hungarian woman were jailed after they beat, poisoned, and stabbed their own dog named Luna in the neck. The RSPCA became involved in the case back in April after Luna’s body was found in an alleyway behind the defendants’ house.
The post-mortem examination revealed what really happened to Luna. Leila Horvath and Norbert Farkas first beat Luna with a bar, then poisoned her with antifreeze, then finally stabbed her in the neck. The American bulldog was left suffering a “slow death” for three days.
All of this has taken place in their own backyard in Parkside Road, Birkenhead, England.
The abusers appeared at Wirral Magistrates’ Court on 13 August, where they were sentenced for a total of eight animal welfare offences between them.
