Paris - French film star turned animal rights activist Brigitte Bardot yesterday showed anger at the mayor of Bucharest for ditching an adoption scheme to save 100,000 stray dogs which roam the streets of the Romanian capital.
"I trusted you but you betrayed me as well as all those who are fighting to save animal lives. You rule Bucharest through tyranny . . you are unworthy of your position," the former sex symbol wrote in an open letter to Mr Traian Basescu.
