BBC Radio Ulster - The Nolan Show, Horror after body of dead dog found in Newry canal with brick tied to its lead

Horror after body of dead dog found in Newry canal with brick tied to its lead.

The USPCA are offering a reward of £500 for information leading to a successful prosecution following the grim discovery of a terrier-type dog's body from the Newry Canal.

Warning: you may find some of the content of this discussion upsetting. A story of terrible animal cruelty. The USPCA are offering a reward of £500 for information leading to a successful prosecution following the grim discovery of a terrier-type dog's body from the Newry Canal. The unfortunate animal was deliberately weighted down with a brick tied to its lead in an apparent attempt to conceal its remains. Vinny was joined by David Wilson from the USPCA and Daniel Barclay from NI Says No to Animal Cruelty.

Also on the programme, 18 people, most of them of Asian origin, have been found guilty of abusing girls in Newcastle who were plied with alcohol and drugs and forced to have sex. Their victims were as young as 14. Members of the gang were convicted of a range of offences, including rape and trafficking. It has also been revealed that police officers recruited a convicted child rapist as an informant and paid him £10,000. Vinny got reaction from former head of CEOP Jim Gamble and former senior police officer Alan Maines.

Plus, an orangeman speaks out against homophobic abuse directed at his son.

And, a major retail store in England already selling Christmas stock - too early to be getting festive?
