The farm of the horse dealer from Hefenhofen, who made headlines in 2017 for alleged animal cruelty, was evicted on Wednesday, according to the police. In December 2023, the debt enforcement office auctioned off the house and pastureland for 1.83 million francs.
The reason for the foreclosures were the debts of the farmer, who was banned from keeping animals. However, the former horse owner, who is involved in legal proceedings due to an animal welfare case from 2017, refused to leave the farm.
On Wednesday, the horse breeder appeared before the Thurgau High Court. At the same time, the cantonal police carried out the forced eviction of his property in Hefenhofen. This was confirmed by a police spokesperson to the Keystone-SDA news agency.
This was a judicial expulsion. The police have been called in to implement it. "The site and the properties will be inspected and then handed over to the new owner," the spokesperson continued.
