Legal expert says dog attack victims can sue owners and Mzansi welcomes announcement

Briefly News reported that a legal expert has warned that dog attack victims can sue the pet owners. South Africans have welcomed the announcement and believe owners should face serious legal ramifications.

This comes after the death of an eight-year-old who was mauled to death by a pit bull that escaped its enclosure. The child was declared dead at the scene after sustaining bites on the neck and chest. However, while the child’s parents can sue the owners, the legal battle ahead is long.
