The orangutan named Pony had been in captivity for a long time. Its owner kept the animal as a sex slave on a chain, regularly shaved it and sold it to men for sexual services for money.

Animal rights activists tried to free the monkey many times, but the owner did not want to let her go. The animal was finally rescued only after the intervention of the police and military.
