Russia - Sakhalin and Yakutia to check reports of dog attacks on people

Russia (bbabo.net), - The prosecutor's office of the Uglegorsk district of the Sakhalin region began an investigation after receiving information about the attack of stray dogs on children.

On Monday, it became known that in the village of Shakhtersk, a homeless mongrel attacked a four-year-old girl playing near her house and bit her on the face. The child was saved by neighbors who came running to the screams. They drove the angry animal away and took the baby home. A day earlier, a six-year-old boy was attacked by dogs in the same village.

"Based on the results of the audit, if there are grounds, response measures will be taken," the supervisory authority said.

A similar incident occurred on Sunday in Yakutsk. Only there a man suffered from an attack by a dog pack. Stray dogs attacked him in the notorious Avtodorozhny district (at the end of last year, a 53-year-old employee of the North-Eastern Federal University died there from the teeth of aggressive animals).

As told in the Republican Department of the Investigative Committee, the citizen received a leg injury and was forced to go to the hospital.

“On this fact, within the framework of the previously initiated criminal case on negligence, the investigators have begun a procedural check, during which the details of the incident, the severity of the harm caused to the health of the man, and other circumstances will be established,” added the senior assistant to the head of the Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee of Russia in the Republic of Sakha ( Yakutia) Nadezhda Dvoretskaya.

As previously reported, the head of the Investigative Committee, Alexander Bastrykin, instructed the central office to analyze cases of deaths from attacks by aggressive dogs in the regions and prepare proposals for improving legislation in order to prevent such emergencies. The decision was made after a pack of dogs killed a seven-year-old girl in Transbaikalia.
