I strongly condemn the manner in which police this morning arrested the 11 Women Members of Parliament who were peaceful and unarmed. Some are bleeding and for some, the clothes were torn. It was as if they were arresting terrorists. Their arrest was shamelessly done at the gates of Parliament. So I don’t know if really we are safe, if people can be deployed at the gates of parliament just to beat harmless citizens. My question is “Who are they working for?” and Who’s behind these people? I don’t think these are people who are working to protect government or to promote a good image of government. They must be working for an invisible hand that is aimed at bringing down the government because I don’t see any single justification.
