Can we now expect a detailed investigation and the culprits are brought before the court? This action will give a signal to others that such events cannot be tolerated. We have never seen people arrested and brought to trial. Why? Also their other collaborators should also be brought to trial.
Did they manage to rescue the victim?
Good work! Don't spare those who play with innocent people's lives.
