Forbidden dogfights in Eastern Hungary – the police caught four men

Police seized 24 dogs from four men who organised dogfights which are forbidden in Hungary. They did not care about how seriously injured their dogs will get during the fights. 

Interestingly, one of the neighbours of the four men living in Kistokaj, Eastern Hungary, did not notice anything. They learnt about what happened next to them only when the police arrived. Authorities are still investigating how many times the dogs fought and exactly where they did so.

According to TV2, many of the dogs were ill when the police officers seized them during a raid early yesterday morning. Authorities placed the dogs in the care of an animal welfare organisation where they are separated from one another and the rest of the dogs because they would be aggressive. According to a worker of the organisation, two dogs are friendly, two of them are scared, while the rest are aggressive. However,

most of them suffer from some illness, for example, babesia.

The organisers did not care if the dogs were injured during the fights at all. Therefore, most of them are covered in scars and wounds. The police do not know how many times the dogs had to fight and where they did so. They believe that there were several different venues.

People could bet on the dogs,

but there is no information on how much money the organisers could win on the fights.
Interestingly, the police did not arrest the organisers.

 

  • Hungarian Hunter threatens dog-walker he will shoot him dead on the spot – VIDEO
  • Tragedy! Hungarian maid killed in Germany while walking a dog – details

As we reported before, a video has stirred up Hungarian public opinion at the end of February. The video was recorded earlier and has been the topic of speculation since. Since the video hit the internet, a few developments have happened. In the video that circulated the entire Hungarian internet,

a hunter threatened to shoot a man on the spot

who was walking his dog in a field near Iregszemcse, Tolna County.

The video went like this:

  • National Gamekeeping. Tie the dog there and shut up – yelled the hunter angrily.
  • I will not tie it there – the man with the dog replied.
  • Tie it there.
  • Why would I tie it? It is my dog – meanwhile, the hunter goes back to his car to get his rifle.
  • Either you tie it there – he shot into the air – either you tie it there, or I will shoot you dead. Quickly, tie it there – the hunter furiously shouted.
  • It is there, you f*cking shoot it.
  • Go the f*ck home. Are you coming here to drive game?
  • No, I am not a hunter. I am walking the dog.

They argued about whether he was using the dog to drive game or merely walking it, and the hunter threatened to shoot him again. The argument continued with a lot of swearing and anger.

  • You get two years in prison for bringing it out – refers to the dog and game driving.
  • I am walking it.
  • The hunter, alluding to the dog’s suspicious panting, tells him that the dog looks like it was driving game just now. The hunter asks him where the package is [the killed game or dropped antlers], he steps back and proceeds to reload his hunting rifle.
  • The man with the dog says that the dog is panting because the weather is hot.

At the end of the video, the hunter shouts at the man, saying that next time, he will not get away that easily, nor his dog. Read more HERE about what happened after the video went viral.
