The authorities of the Trans-Baikal Territory plan to build a network of shelters for captured animals and increase funding for municipalities so that they can catch and keep stray dogs. Chita Mayor Aleksandr Sapozhnikov also supported the idea of amending the law.
The day before, on January 22, the Investigative Committee opened a criminal case due to the death of a 7-year-old girl who was attacked by stray dogs. After the girl went missing, her parents contacted the police. The police found her body in a vacant lot with bite marks.
