Forbidden dogfights in Eastern Hungary – the police caught four men

Change language:

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.

According to a worker of the organisation, two dogs are friendly, two of them are scared, while the rest are aggressive. However,
