Dog fighting suspects out on bail

Thirteen men arrested in connection with a dog-fighting syndicate, in Tsakane, were granted bail in the Tsakane Magistrates Court, on Monday.

All 18 of the suspects who were arrested in the raid are now out on bail.

The raid on the dog-fighting syndicate was organised by the National Council of SPCAs, with the assistance of the SAPS, and took place on Sunday, November 3.

The case has been remanded and elevated to a regional court and is scheduled to be heard on Tuesday, December 3.

The conditions of bail for the accused include the handing in of all domestic animals owned by the men to a local SPCA by Friday, November 22.

Thirteen dogs recovered by the NSPCA during the raid were euthanased by a veterinarian due to the seriousness and extent of their injuries and suffering.

Only one dog was able to be saved.
