Ibrahim reiterated her stance on animal cruelty, suggesting that various other methods exist to address situations without inflicting suffering on animals. She asserted that all actions must align with established laws and statutes. "I will stand by what I feel is right. There are many ways to resolve matters more intelligently according to laws and statutes. Torturing and killing animals in such a manner is wrong. There are other methods that would not have caused Rocky to suffer and die at the scene. I do not feel guilty for having sympathy and empathy for what happened to Rocky.
