A.D. whose cat disappeared in air cargo in 2014. The lawsuit filed by a young girl named, was finally concluded 6 years later.
Our four-legged friends are extremely important to us. Many animal parents put them in their children. What has been done to vulnerable and innocent animals, especially in recent years, is extremely sad. Despite all the events, the animal rights law does not come out. In the current law, animals are considered as "property", not "life", and penalties are given accordingly. This time it is not an animal slaughter, but something as sad as it was brought to court. A.D. whose cat disappeared in air cargo in 2014. The lawsuit filed by a young girl named, was finally concluded 6 years later. So what was the price of the lost cat?
A young girl named A.D, who had a hard time after her parents divorced in 2014, decided to adopt a cat. After a while, A.D., who won a university in another city, asked his mother to send his best friend, the cat, by air cargo. Air cargo-transport pets for many years both in Turkey and in the world is done. However, companies must comply with certain criteria. The safety of furry friends is the most important criteria.
However, the cat he owned was lost in the air cargo. After the incident, A.D. and his mother brought their victimization to judgment The mother and daughter, who went to the 2nd Consumer Court, claimed that they suffered material and moral damage due to the disappearance of the cat and demanded 16,500 TL in material and moral compensation.
The defendant, on the other hand, claimed that the cargo company requested that the cat be transported by cargo. He also argued that the amount of compensation was exorbitant and disproportionate and demanded that the case be dismissed. The lawsuit filed in 2014 was concluded after exactly 6 years. The court sentenced the cargo company, which had a fault in the disappearance of the cat, to pay a total of 4 thousand 500 Euro in material and moral compensation.
The 11th Civil Chamber of the Supreme Court of Appeals, which took effect when the defendant company appealed the decision, upheld the decision of the 2nd Consumer Court. Thus, A.D. earned 4 thousand Euro compensation for his beloved cat from his legal struggle for 6 years. Yes, unfortunately, the cost of a lost life is 4 thousand Euro.
