«I feel disdain for gestures like this – said the municipal councilor from Bagheria with responsibility for animal welfare, Giuseppe Tripoli – and it worries me that such cruel actions can be carried out. We still don’t know how things went and what the responsibilities are, the investigations are ongoing. In the event that a trial should arise, as an Administration we will evaluate whether to join as a civil party. Ours is an animal rights municipality and we are trying to do our utmost to protect animals: with the mayor, for example, we have decided to no longer host circuses that exploit animals, together with the ASP we will implant microchips for free, we have created at the municipal police command there is a section that deals with animals and soon we will also have an operating room to sterilize dogs and cats.”
