CHARGED With Lagi Giving Her Cats Food And Drinks To The Cause Of Death, This Man Was Threatened With 18 Months' Prison

JAKARTA - A man was charged for failing to provide enough food and water for his pet cat for about five weeks, resulting in the animal's death.

Khairulnizam Khan Kamalrozaman, 25, was initially indicted in August for leaving his pet cat starving to death, but the allegations were made changes last Wednesday.

He now faces unnecessary accusations of pain and suffering in his pet's gray cat, for not giving him enough food and water regularly between December 25, 2020 and February 2, 2021, according to CNA Oct. 26.

According to the indictment, the cat was kept in a flat in Sembawang, Singapore.

For the offenses charged against him, Khairulnizam was jailed for up to 18 months, fined up to 15,000 Singapore dollars, or both.

Initially, Khairulnizam planned to pleaded guilty on Wednesday. However, he asked for a delay in raising funds, saying his wife gave birth three weeks ago.

He added that he had an appointment with the Housing Board the following day. Otherwise, the flats will be taken over.

The judge said he usually didn't give the delay after the delay, and asked if Khairulnizam thought he would be able to raise funds.

He said he did and was given a suspension until December to pleaded guilty.
