The police he mentioned, has assured to carry out a thorough investigation into the matter and therefore, is of the firm believe that justice would be ensured.

I want the IGP to take immediate action since I can equally revenge with my people, and it would not be easy. I want peace and therefore, do not want such things to happen”.
