Owner hands over two other dogs to police

 

 

PUTRAJAYA: The owner of the Rottweiler that is believed to have mauled

nine-year-old Mohd Hazman Khan Seh Zaidi has handed over two other dogs to

police.

 

Sepang OCPD Supt Zahidi Ayob said the owner came to the station at 11.30am

yesterday morning.

 

“He came and gave us the dogs. We have taken a statement from him and we are

still questioning him over the case,” he said, adding that the animals would be

taken to the Veterinary Services Department in Shah Alam.

 

Supt Zahidi also said the police would be taking another statement from Mohd

Hazman.

 

The case is being investigated under Section 289 of the Penal Code for

negligence with respect to the animals. It carries a six-month imprisonment term

or a fine up to RM2,000 or both, upon conviction.

 

Meanwhile, Bernama reported that Mohd Hazman was readmitted to the Putrajaya

Hospital at about noon yesterday for a further check-up.

 

The boy's father Seh Zaidi Seh Hashim said the hospital called in the morning

and asked him to bring the child back to the hospital.
