Boundless Cruelty Revealed

A stato-to-toe investigation is underway following the public exposure of three young athletes from the Nizhny Novgorod Equestrian Sports School, who allegedly subjected a horse to horrific mistreatment.

At the I.A. Soi Modern Pentathlon and Equestrian Sports School, the girls were caught on camera mercilessly tormenting a horse named Iolanta. This footage, inevitably, found its way online, spurring a tornado of public disapproval. With the heat on, authorities swung into action.

As the investigation unfolds, the school's administration has taken the initial steps, suspending the girls from training pending a pedagogical council meeting on May 5, at which their expulsion may be considered. Sources close to the Nizhny Novgorod regional Ministry of Sports have confirmed this development.

An examination of the school's coaching and administrative staff is also on the cards. If any signs of misconduct are uncovered, appropriate disciplinary action will be taken.

Iolanta, fortunately, is on the mend. Her initial injuries, apparent bruises on the head and abrasions on the chest, have been tended to by veterinarians. She's eating well and maintaining a calm demeanor with people, a positive sign of her recovery.

The regional Ministry of Sports expressed revulsion at such barbaric treatment of animals. They have taken immediate steps to support the school's management, organizing additional training sessions for all staff, and holding series of workshops with students to ensure animal welfare is a priority. Additionally, the school will integrate lessons on proper animal handling into the curriculum.
