The kingdom is in turmoil following a video of online abuse.
The one who got into trouble this time is Kurt Zuma, the brakeman of West Ham and former Chelsea, who has been documented on social media beating and abusing his two private cats.
In the videos, which were uploaded to the Snapshot account by Zuma's brother !, the French brake is seen beating, slapping and throwing the cat, who is just trying to escape from his hands.
Those who are actually observed, amused by the violent incident, are members of Zuma's family, who did not try to prevent the abuse at all.
A video obtained by The Sun allegedly shows footballer Kurt Zouma kicking and hitting his cat.
It's absolutely disgusting and disturbing footage.
I hope he is prosecuted for animal cruelty.

The 27-year-old brakeman, who is expected to be severely punished by the hammers, has already apologized: "First, I want to apologize for my actions. Of course there is no excuse for my behavior. I deeply regret and want to apologize to everyone who was hurt by the video. I want to assure everyone "That our two cats are in excellent condition, healthy and receiving love. This case will not be repeated."

After launching a campaign calling on the player to suspend the player yesterday, West Ham were quick to condemn Zuma's behavior: "The club condemns the act. We spoke to Kurt and it is important for us to make it clear that we do not accept any form of animal abuse."
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
