Port Klang dog death: Man and woman to be charged over alleged abuse of Rocky

A man and a woman are set to face court charges in relation to the alleged abuse and death of a dog named Rocky in Port Klang. The man, 24-year-old Muhammad Shah Idham Nor Haikal Shaharom, is expected to be charged before Sessions Court judge Mujib Saroji, while the woman will appear before Judge Saroji and also face separate charges before magistrate A. Karthiyayini.

The incident occurred during an enforcement operation in Taman Teluk Gedong Indah on July 29, when Rocky died. Rocky's owner claims that she found the dog restrained by a snare around its neck and repeatedly asked those at the scene to release it, but her pleas were ignored. The DVS Animal Welfare Team filed a report after receiving the dog's carcass following the circulation of a video showing several individuals tying and pulling the dog by its neck.
