Four accused of 'irregular animal sacrifice': highlights animal control problem in the country

(Illustration only)
LOS BARRIOS (Cadiz) -- Four people were accused last week of killing animals at a shelter without the proper permits. Three of them are employees of a company called Control Zoosanitario, which has a contract to take abandoned domestic animals in Los Barrios and Algeciras. Among other things, they are impugned for alleged irregularities when putting the animals down, such as giving false dates in order to shorten the animals' stays at the shelter. According to a communique from the Guardia Civil, the four are the vet who attends at the shelter, and two employees of the dog 'home' in Los Barrios, plus someone with no proper connection to it, but who was the one killing the animals without permits or even a veterinary license to do so.
