Four men accused of cruelly killing a cat named 'Schmotzer' in Brixen, Austria, were acquitted today. The trial sparked outrage among animal rights activists who gathered outside the court, demanding stricter penalties for animal cruelty. The men were initially accused of using a bolt gun and a shovel to torture the cat, but the judge doubted these claims. One defendant was convicted of coercion. The case caused widespread outrage and led to a petition for stricter penalties.
