In the wake of the arrival of the suspected killer dogs Lagos State Police Command’s headquarters, the Command has confirmed handling the case with respect to the rights of the animals.
Reacting to a comment by an X user who had called for the respect of the animals’ right, the Command’s spokeperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, stated that the dogs are getting the best as they are under the care of the Command’s K-9 unit.
Hundeyin affirmed the Command’s stance against animal cruelty.
“They are getting the best treatment. We do not condone cruelty to animals.
“These were the dogs after they arrived at the Command headquarters before our K-9 unit came to take them into better custody.” Hundeyin wrote.
NPO reports that the dogs were alleged to have mauled a yet-to-be identified security operative to death at an estate in Lagos.
The owner of the suspected killer dogs has been held in custody over the incident.
