Community Council Workers Arrested for Abusing Turtle Carcass

Four employees of the Chlorakas Community Council have been arrested by the Police on charges of animal abuse. The arrest followed the publication of a video showing them throwing and kicking the carcass of a Caretta-Caretta turtle on the beach. The workers had gone to the beach to remove the dead animal, but instead of doing so properly, they proceeded with these unacceptable actions. The Community Council expressed its regret for the incident and pledged to investigate the possibility of disciplinary action. Investigations into the cause of the turtle's death are ongoing.
