Cages holding carcasses of dog, two cats found on Hong Kong beach, recalling dark discovery of 15 dead pets in August

• Police say one of the cages was found by a woman in Lantau Island’s Sham Wat, who had spotted a pair of crates floating offshore on Sunday
• A number of drowned pets were found in similar circumstances over August 26 and 27, days after a customs operation at sea had seized live, microchipped dogs
