A MAN who killed a cat by swinging it twice against the wall was jailed for 10 weeks on Wednesday.

ZamZam Ismail, 41, an odd-job labourer, admitted to committing mischief at the void deck of Block 269 Bukit Batok East Avenue 4 on Jan 1.

A woman was walking past the void deck when she saw ZamZam swing the cat against the wall twice and throw the animal away. She called the police.

ZamZam who has previous convictions for criminal intimidation and theft could have been jailed for up to five years and/or fined for the offence.
