According to the prosecution, Mr. A joined a stray cat cafe and received more than 20 stray cats for free adoption from May to August last year, after which he killed them.

Mr. A cruelly killed the stray cats, including setting fire to their legs, then disposed of them in standard garbage bags or abandoned them along highways.

After adopting the stray cats, Mr. A cut off contact with the donors and disappeared. The donors, finding this suspicious, reported it to the police, which led to the crime being uncovered.

A prosecution official stated, "We will respond strictly to animal abuse crimes that disregard life."

It was found that Mr. A committed the crimes to relieve stress after suffering losses from real estate gap investment.
