After four investigations, three formal complaints to the police, meetings and a joint check with the authorities, the case of horse abuse in Targoviste seemed finished.

The Veterinary Authority and the national and local Police decided to collaborate and to monitor together the market every week, in order to prevent the horse owners from gathering at the outskirts of the town and put in place cruel acts against animals.

Last week, Animals’ Angels has checked the situation at Targoviste again and the bitter surprise is that the same people are continuing to brutalize horses forcing them to drag carriages with tyres tied to them with chains. The animals collapse frighteningly under the whip’s painful strokes.

Another formal complaint was lodged but the action of Animals’ Angels will not end here.
