The photos here show a shinters car from Cuprija – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%86uprija
Here they catch dogs and cats, as well as other towns and cities such as Svilajnac. In Cuprija, they have a furnace for killing dogs. We know of information which says that live dogs are killed by being burnt in these furnaces. Cats are always dead before they arrive at the furnace, because the shinters throw live cats into the same vehicle that carries the dogs; and the dogs kill the cats.
EPAR in Subotica has received a letter about the shinters at the city pound of Pozega – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Po%C5%BEega,_Serbia
We are informed that there is only one cage at the pound, which contains around 40-50 dogs, who are all deprived of both food and water, even in temperatures of around 40 degrees C.
A letter provided by a citizen of Uzice city says that shinters have caught her little dog. The lady in question writes that she went to look for this pound. She understands that her dog was killed. The lady still had 5 puppies belonging to this dog. The next day shinters went to the house of the lady saying that they wanted to take the puppies and kill them also.
The lady threw the shinters out of her house, but the shinters then called the police.
We do not know what happened after this but telephone calls are being made to gather more information.
The no kill law of Serbia is not being implemented anywhere.
The letter provided by a the lady of Uzice city can be seen below:
