Then they put it in the sack, not before dragging them tens of meters, leaving a trail of blood and dropping them on the side of the road. Two were found dead and the third in human condition taken to a veterinarian who had to be put to death.

In sentencing, among others, Justice Menachem Mizrahi of the Ramla Magistrate's Court wrote: "I have concluded from all the considerations and circumstances. The accused, who has a criminal history before me, must be tried on the severity of the offense, at the top of the complex, in order to repay him for his shocking cruelty. , Towards three different dogs, to deter and deter the many, and to harden the heart in the face of various extenuating circumstances in light of the pain and suffering of those three poor dogs whose skulls were slaughtered with a large number of flocks of herds. "
