A Qalioubia prosecution ordered to refer four people to a misdemeanor court over torturing and killing a chained dog with knives, after horrific footage of the incident sparked outrage in the country.
The court set March 4 to review the case.
Earlier, the prosecution ordered to remand the defendants into custody for four days pending investigations into charges of killing a domestic animal with no cause, which is banned under Egyptian law as well as illegally possessing cold steel and terrorizing citizens.
The defendants claimed that they had a brawl with the owner of the dog, who bit one of them during the fight.
