Parts of the people who contributed to the ban of tricycle. They should have taken him to one of the affected tricycle garage and let the union chairman and his boys there give him a thorough beating before sending him to jail.

Anybody or even armed robbers can easily induces this tailors with cash.

"The business of robbery"?

Let's hope the journalist who wrote this piece doesn't actually see robbery as a profession and robbery proceeds as "income"...

Okay

He should be hanged and thrown the body to sea...

How do they get the uniform?
