NSPCA to appeal after Thandi Modise acquitted of animal cruelty charges
The NSPCA has instructed their legal team to appeal the judgement against Thandi Modise after she was acquitted of animal cruelty charges.
The National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (NSPCA) are set to appeal the judgement handed down to Thandi Modise on Friday.
Modise, speaker of the National Assembly in Parliament, was acquitted of all six charges relating to animal cruelty in the Potchefstroom Regional Court today, 30 April.
The court determined the man she hired to look after the animals “failed in his duties” when he left the farm complaining that he hadn’t been paid and that he should be held responsible.
