We don’t want to be arrested, we want to encounter: family
While sitting in the car, a family member said we should seek justice. We saw what was going on with him. No one else was with me during that time. Neither the police nor anyone else. The police were completely negligent. He further blamed the police and said had it not been for the negligence of the government and police, nothing would have happened. Without lati fees, nothing happens. Action must be taken. We are not satisfied with the arrests. We need what happened to him.
