The Johor Bahru City Council (MBJB) has confirmed that the individual captured on video allegedly running over a dog last Friday was an employee of a contractor appointed to carry out stray dog control operations.
Johor Housing and Local Government Committee chairman Datuk Mohd Jafni Md Shukor said that MBJB had taken immediate action against the contractor, including the issuance of a show-cause letter for failing to comply with standard operating procedures (SOP) and the terms of appointment.
Separately, MBJB has also lodged a police report to enable further investigation by the authorities.
βThe police report allows for a more thorough and independent investigation into the incident, especially if there are grounds to pursue legal action,β Mohd Jafni said in a statement.
Jafni stressed that the state government would not compromise if any violations are confirmed.
