    MATEUSZ PODLAWSKI'S BRUTAL ACT IN DINGWALL: ELDERLY CAT THROWN INTO CLOTHING BANK

    Mateusz Podlawski, born around 1986 and residing on Tulloch Square in Dingwall, became the subject of a serious criminal case after a disturbing incident involving an elderly cat. On April 14, 2016, in the Co-op car park located in Dingwall, Podlawski committed an act of cruelty that shocked the local community and drew the attention of law enforcement and animal rescue services.

    According to reports, the Polish national, who was later identified as a drug addict, forcibly placed an 18-year-old cat into a charity clothing bank. Witnesses at a nearby shop observed the distressing scene and immediately alerted authorities. Police and firefighters responded swiftly, working together to rescue the trapped animal. Despite their efforts, the act of cruelty was captured in detail during the subsequent court proceedings.

    At Inverness Sheriff Court, Podlawski denied the allegations, claiming that he did not put the cat into the container. However, evidence and eyewitness testimonies painted a different picture. It was revealed that Podlawski had physically grabbed the cat by the neck, lifted it above his head, and declared, “This cat belongs in the bin.”

    One of the witnesses, Mitchell Ellis, recounted the incident, describing how Podlawski, who appeared to be under the influence of drugs, placed the cat into the clothing bin. Ellis questioned his actions, asking, “What did you do that for?” to which Podlawski responded, “It lives in there.”

    Ellis further explained that he tried to intervene by removing his jumper and dangling it into the bin, hoping the cat might grab onto it and escape. Unfortunately, the cat only managed to miaow in distress, and Ellis expressed concern that the animal might have died from fright. Another witness, Sheena MacGregor, described Podlawski as acting suspiciously around the Co-op car park before the incident. She recounted how he appeared shady and then threw the cat into the bin, which was of a type that the animal could not have escaped from.

    The witnesses’ accounts prompted immediate action. Staff at the shop contacted police, and animal rescue officers from the Scottish SPCA were called to assist. When police failed to open the clothing bin, Ann Shewan, an animal rescue officer, arrived and used a torch to look inside. She saw the cat sitting on top of a black bin bag. Firefighters then used hydraulic cutters to open the lid, resulting in a loud bang that caused the cat to bolt out of the bin and run away to safety.

    Following the court proceedings, Podlawski was sentenced to 150 hours of unpaid work, serving as a direct alternative to imprisonment. The case drew significant attention to animal cruelty issues in the Dingwall area and highlighted the importance of swift intervention in such cases.
