RSPCA Files Three Animal Welfare Offence Charges Against Kurt Zouma

Kurt Zouma has been charged with three animal welfare offences after the West Ham defender was alleged to have harmed his cat.

A video came to light in February showing the France international appearing to kick and slap one of his pets.

Zouma’s younger brother Yoan filmed the video and shared it on social media, and has himself been charged with two alleged offences.

The RSPCA took both of Kurt Zouma’s cats into care and started a process of bringing a prosecution case against the 27-year-old in March.

Both brothers will have to attend Thames Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.

Kurt Zouma is accused of two counts of causing “unnecessary suffering” to the cat, by kicking it in the abdomen and slapping it in the head, and a further count of failing to protect the cat from “pain suffering, injury or disease”.

Yoan Zouma has been charged with aiding or abetting his brother to commit two of the above offences.
