London – Monday, a video surfaced showing a young blonde woman throwing six puppies, who were just weeks old, into a river as the animals whined and cried. Internet users believe that the video, which was originally posted on YouTube, may have been filmed near the Vrbas River in Bosnia and Herzegovina. PETA is offering a reward of up £1000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for this heinous act.

Would you please consider sharing this information with your audience and readers? It might be the only way to apprehend those responsible for this tragedy.

“Animal abusers are cowards”, says PETA Manager Mimi Bekhechi. “They take their issues out on the most defenceless beings available to them. Research into criminology and psychology shows that people who commit acts of cruelty to animals are often repeat offenders who pose a serious threat to all animals – including humans.”
 
Anyone with information about this case is encouraged to contact PETA on 020 7357 9229.
