The Civil Guard in the region of Murcia has developed the operation 'TRAP' to clarify several episodes of animal abuse against dogs in Alhama de Murcia, which has resulted in the charging of a person for an offense relating to the protection of domestic animals and seizure of stocks allegedly used by the accused against the dogs.

The other dog that fell into the trap suffered serious injuries, but in this case less severe than the last, because he was only a lit hours.
Effective SEPRONA, in the complaint received, initiated the investigation into the facts that, shortly after, paid off in finding a neighbor of the owner of the dogs had allegedly placed the trap on a farm illegally, by which, after obtaining all necessary evidence, proceeded to the imputation of this Spanish 75-year resident of Alhama de Murcia, suspicion of crime on the protection of pets.
The policemen found and seized the stocks used illegally hunting, which together with the proceedings initiated have been made available to the Court of Instruction No. 2 of Totana (Murcia).

Soon after he fell into the trap of other dogs of his neighbor, who was in it for a few hours.
