New appeal hearing date for orca Morgan has been set for the 3rd December 2013. The High Court in Den Haag (The Hague) has informed the Free Morgan Foundation that Morgan’s appeal will be held at 1045, in the Chamber Unit A3, Kneuterdijk 22, Den Haag, Netherlands. The schedule will only allow for 5 minutes for Morgan’s lawyer to present our case (and 5 minutes for the Ministry to present theirs). This will be followed by any questions the High Court Judges may have. The public will not, unfortunately, have the chance to comment or make submissions prior to the hearing, but we understand that you will be permitted to attend. We do hope that you will come along and show your support. The Court has up to eight weeks, after the Appeal hearing, to pass their verdict. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=480284618745864&set=a.137415246366138.29319.137410949699901&&theater

It is very sad that Europe was unable to give an example of what is the right thing to do in the case of freeing the orca Morgan. It was proven once again that fairness and ethics are second to "money talks". The tendency in Europe continues to be there is no freedom for animals: in Spain they are crazy about being entertained at the expense of animals' suffering and death. The High Court in Den Haag (The Hague), Netherlands did not show any more respect for animal rights either. Europe missed an opportunity to be the example to follow leading the USA. Now, the USA will be the world leader with the release of Lolita orca giving hope to Morgan orca. Bravo for NOOA in the US! Leave a Reply. |
