New cases of animal mutilations have emerged at Universiti Malaya (UM), deepening concerns about a series of disturbing incidents on campus. Two more mutilated animal carcasses a cat and a dog were discovered near the campus gymnasium centre on December 25, following the earlier discovery of five mutilated stray cats.
According to Harian Metro, the Universiti Malaya Students' Union (KMUM) confirmed these latest incidents in a statement that has since gone viral. According to reports, the animals were found with similar patterns of mutilation to the previous cases, with their stomachs cut open and intestines removed.
In response to these disturbing discoveries, KMUM has taken immediate action by:
Notifying the campus security office to enhance entrance security measures
Initiating the process to obtain CCTV footage from the area
Filing a police report regarding the new incidents
These latest findings have intensified concerns about safety and security within the university grounds, particularly regarding the welfare of stray animals in the area. The pattern of mutilations suggests deliberate acts of animal cruelty, raising alarm among the university community.
The discovery comes as the university is still investigating the earlier cases involving the five stray cats. The similarity in the method of mutilation between all cases has led to speculation about a possible connection between the incidents.
