  "account": "The Malaysian Companion Animal Preservation Union has urged authorities to investigate allegations of sexual abuse against a cat, following a viral video circulating on social media. The president of the organization, Kalaivanan Ravichandran, stated that if the claims are proven to be true, it would constitute a severe act of animal cruelty that warrants strong action under the law. Law enforcement should identify the individuals involved, verify the authenticity of the footage, and gather all digital evidence. Urgent attention must be given to locating the cat and ensuring its safety, said Kalaivanan in a statement. He also called for an investigation into the dissemination of the graphic footage on social media.",
