Lawyer Walid Al -Fouly, the defense of the injured circus worker in the incident of the tiger attack inside the Tanta circus, confirmed that the report published by the lawyer of the artist Anousa Kuta, a Lions coach, through social media, does not reflect the full truth about the status of animals inside the circus.
Al -Fuli said in press statements that the report that was circulated as the Directorate of Veterinary Medicine in Gharbiya included incomplete information, and was based only on the statements of the CBC, and not on the results of the actual examination of the veterinary committee formally formed by the competent authorities.
He explained that his client, who is the assistant coach of the injured lions, revealed in his statements that the lions and the tigers are fed by dead donkeys, which led to her rabies, which represents a imminent danger to the lives of the circus and the public.
Al -Fouly pointed out that what was stated in the veterinary report published on the quantities of food (8 to 10 chickens and 2 kg meat and eggs per day) was not the result of the committee’s examination, but rather only statements from one side who is responsible for animal feeding, which loses the report its neutrality and credibility, and is a misleading of public opinion.
The lawyer of the injured worker called on the competent authorities to quickly announce the results of the full investigations, form a neutral committee to examine the conditions of animals inside the circus, and review the methods of nutrition and care, in order to preserve the lives of citizens and ensure the rights of the injured.
He added: “We will not allow manipulation of facts or covering the neglect that led to a catastrophe that almost killed a young worker while performing his work, and we will take all the necessary legal measures to hold those responsible for the accident accountable.
