Zambia Police detain foreigner for keeping rotting dog carcasses

Police in Lusaka, the Zambian capital, on Wednesday arrested a 50-year-old foreigner for killing dogs and letting them rot in his house.

The man, believed to be a British national of Nigerian origin, has been charged with being cruel to animals.

Danny Mwale, the Police Deputy Spokesperson, said the Police arrested the man after receiving information from a member of the public.

The informant said the foreigner was killing animals and letting them rot and form maggots.

He is allegedly using the maggots for unknown purposes.

Mwale said that a search at the house by a combined team of officials from the Police, Immigration department and Local Authority discovered three cages in one of the rooms.

The cages contain four pieces of dog carcasses in a rotten state with several flies.

The premises installed with several surveillance cameras had 14 live dogs within the yard, the Police spokesperson said in a statement.

The Police have since detained the foreigner, who lives alone at the house. (Xinhua)
