Hello, I am working on an Asian version of the UK Prosecutors Pack (see

attached) and could use some help.

 

Do you know of any information at all about the link between cruelty to

animals and violence towards people from China or anywhere in Asia? In

particular, I need the following:

 

 

1. Any specific examples of people who have been convicted of

violent offences after harming animals.

2. Any research/studies about this issue conducted in Asia

3. Examples of a person being convicted of sexually harming an

animal and later a person.

4. Any cases of animals and people being neglected by the same

person(s).

5. Any convictions and sentences for perpetrators of cruelty to

animals

6. Any organisations who work on this issue in Asia.

7. Quotes from experts regarding this connection.

 

 

In order to cite examples, I will need to see newspaper clippings etc so

anything you can email or send over would be greatly appreciated.

 

Do let me know if you can help, or if you have any further queries.

 

Thanks a lot - hope all is well there!
