A person who was found guilty of dragging his four-month-old dog canine from his bike in a malevolent action against his partner has been fined 10, 000 baht.
After his trial on Thursday for dog violence, Pannawit Padwaew, 35, was ordered to pay a great of 10, 000 ringgit by the Nakhon Ratchasima municipal court in Pak Chong area.
The crime stemmed from an event on Wednesday in which Mr Pannawit was seen by observers dragging a canine named” Salmon” along on a leash over 600 yards from his bike outside the Pak Chong city office.
The puppy sustained scars, deep scratches, and was bleeding. The picture was captured in a movie clip which went viral on social media.
Pakkawan Sukjai, a hear, said she was on her way to pick up her kids from school when she saw the gentleman, noting she thought he was making the dog training.
The guy then sped away, and the dog, able to keep up, was dragged on, she said.
She said she honked and tried to stop the person, and another auto cut in front of the man’s bicycle and stopped him.
Vipawadee Saenkhamboonmak, a member of the Watchdog Thailand Foundation, filed a grievance against Mr Pannawit, which led to his trial.
During the sensor, Mr Pannawit told officers that he had a battle with his partner. In a fit of rage, he tried to get back at his sweetheart by hurting their dog, he said.
The puppy was afterwards put up for adoption. Its new owner, Siripong Sae Kang, said the dog immediately trembled at night at his apartment but recovered the following day.
