Since the vehicles were used to commit a criminal offense (Curfew Violation), a judge can confiscate them without replacement. These vehicles should then be handed over to the PHIs so that they can perform their duty more efficiently.

You are a 100% correct. They only think of policies which is non practical. We in lock down for the last 16 days. The people who implement these have fully stocked food items and booze for galore. They Cannot understand the poor and middle class.

My sincere wish is to at least open some of the neighbourhood groceries in the poor areas so that people can buy what they want as majority of them cannot purchase expensive online food packages.

What a state of affairs/ A so called former American citizen is the president of the country and he has no common sense that the people need food to eat. The people are not stupid to go to the road for no reason. As a parent, people cannot stand to see their children not have food to eat. And, the government arrests them and locks them up. What a crime the government is committing? Who is going to feed those hungry and innocent children? Isn't it the responsibility of a parent to feed their children? There is no feed supplying mechanism as the government boasts. Not a single delivery ever came for the past 3 weeks to where we live. The rich people in my neighbourhood go out whenever they want in their luxury vehicles. But, the poor are arrested. We thought this kind of politics will change when we voted for GR but unfortunately, he is also a back-boneless leader.
