ALI
South Africans have been horrified by the recent horrific and extremely violent crimes against animals.
Reports, comments, photos and videos are rife on all social media platforms.
Read our latest project case in point:
Specialised Security Services (SSS) is a leader in the safety and security sector and a passionate advocate for animal welfare. Our dedicated team works tirelessly to protect animals from abuse, neglect, and cruelty by investigating reports of mistreatment, collaborating with animal rescue organisations, and supporting law enforcement in prosecuting offenders.
SSS actively engages in rescue operations, evidence collection, and legal advocacy to ensure that animals receive the care and protection they deserve. It is critical to understand that violence against animals is not a recent phenomenon or only an isolated case. It occurs frequently and SSS is inundated with such cases.
ALI'S CASE:
On Saturday, 31 August 2024, the South African Animal Welfare Inspectorate Association (SAAWIA) received a distress call from a rescue group regarding a dog that had been brutally beaten with a brick in Bryanston, Sandton, Johannesburg.
Trainee Inspector Haricharan from SAAWIA and a team from Dog’s Trust Rescue organisation immediately responded to the call and discovered a severely injured dog requiring urgent veterinary attention.
Before the incident, SAAWIA had received multiple reports that a dog was being beaten daily at a large hijacked property in Bryanston, which is illegally occupied by Congolese nationals.
Upon visiting the property, Inspector Haricharan, accompanied by a member of the animal rescue group, discovered three dogs and dozens of rabbits living in poor conditions.
One dog, named Ali, was found to be severely beaten and traumatised.
The dog’s owner admitted to occasionally beating Ali.
Acting quickly, Inspector Haricharan removed Ali from the property, and Ali was rushed to a veterinarian.
A veterinary report and supporting photos are compiled to document Ali’s injuries.
Several days later, on 4 September 2024, Inspector Haricharan and the Sandton SAPS returned to the property for a follow-up inspection.
During this visit, the owner surrendered another dog, a scared Belgian Malinois puppy, which was immediately taken into SAAWIA’s care.
Ali and the Malinois puppy are recovering at a reputable animal rescue association nearby.
Following these interventions, the property owner was arrested on Friday, 6 September 2024, and detained over the weekend on charges of animal cruelty.
The perpetrator faces charges under the Animal Protection Act 71 of 1962, Section 2(1) A & F.
He is also expected to face charges under Section 2(1)E of the Animal Protection Act for failing to provide necessary medical treatment for the animals in his care.
The perpetrator will appear in the Randburg Magistrate's Court today, 11 September 2024.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: All potential clients need to be aware that owing to the nature of our work as specialist investigators there are people who have been caught on the wrong side of the law - who are trying to discredit me - Mike Bolhuis and my organisation Specialised Security Services - to get themselves off the hook. This retaliation happens on social media and creates doubt about our integrity and ability. Doubt created on social media platforms is both unwarranted and untrue. We strongly recommend that you make up your minds concerning me and our organisation only after considering all the factual information - to the exclusion of hearsay and assumptions. Furthermore, you are welcome to address your concerns directly with me should you still be unsatisfied with your conclusions. While the internet provides a lot of valuable information, it is also a platform that distributes a lot of false information. The distribution of false information, fake news, slander and hate speech constitutes a crime that can be prosecuted by law. Your own research discretion and discernment are imperative when choosing what and what not to believe.
STANDARD RULES APPLY: Upon appointment, we require a formal mandate with detailed instructions. Please take note that should you not make use of our services – you may not under any circumstance use my name or the name of my organisation as a means to achieve whatever end.
