Garbo, a "security" dog, was bleeding profusely in the Paris metro in the presence of the security guard. One Voice seizes the case and leads the investigation.

In a train on line 7 of the Paris metro, Garbo, a “security” dog, was bleeding profusely in the presence of the security guard who was in charge of it. One Voice takes the case and conducts the investigation.

Garbo,
a sheepdog, suffered in silence from a serious injury, while the
security guard was on watch. Flabbergasted, the passengers of the
line 7 of the Paris metro intervened on February 21st,
and alerted us.

A sea ​​of ​​blood

Direct
witness to the scene, a traveller told us what she witnessed. When
she saw the security guard and his dog on the train, she immediately
noticed Garbo’s agitation, the behaviour of the man pulling on the
collar and a metallic smell of blood. And for good reason … With a
deep wound at the base of its tail and a flap of flesh hanging off,
the dog seemed to have received a brutal blow at the rear of the
train by means of a heavy object. Panting hard, pupils extremely
dilated, the poor dog endured hell while a huge red puddle widened
under its flanks … The reaction from the guard? None, apart from
aggression and vis-à-vis his dog facing the passengers who were
worried. At the Riquet station, the witness sounded the alarm so that
the dog was quickly taken care of. The driver then moved to the wagon
… Unbelievably, he reportedly stated that he was aware of the
presence on board of an injured and relieved dog on his way to a
rescue centre at the Villette.

The metro as an ambulance!

Was RATP really aware of the
situation? Did they know that one of their “security” dogs
had been injured, suffered from violence and was driven under such
conditions to an assumed veterinarian? The day after the events, they
spoke on their twitter account reassuring the public on the care of
the dog and rejecting the responsibility of its chaotic transport on
a subcontract security company. We immediately sent them an official
letter. RATP told us to contact its legal department … We will not
stop there. This tragedy is indicative of the sordid exploitation of
so-called “security” dogs, who have been overly coerced. In
this case, we have started an investigation to find Garbo and help
him. And we will obviously identify the culprit (s) in order to
exercise justice!
