SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korean police said on Monday they were investigating allegations of animal cruelty by a group which ripped apart a live piglet to protest against the move of a military office to their area.

There has been public outrage after local media published photographs and video of the two-month-old piglet, which had its legs torn off and was beheaded at a rally attended by about 1,500 protesters.

Some Koreans have built a memorial shrine to the pig: http://news.media.daum.net/society/affair/200705/28/kukinews/v16885407.html

What really pisses me off is that the guy's face is blurred in the picture on the memorial site.  That's fucked.  That's just like saying it's okay to do that....but, then again, I guess that also goes back to the Zenkimchi libel bullshit regarding reputation...
