SINGAPORE: The National Parks Board (NParks) reported no clear evidence of animal cruelty in the case of an injured community cat in Punggol, which later died. Initially investigated as a suspected cruelty case, NParks determined that the injuries were likely the result of a vehicular accident, not a deliberate act. The cat was found injured and subsequently euthanized; NParks has concluded its investigation, urging the public to refrain from speculation regarding similar incidents.
