Should be done by police Tuesday, 16 August 2022 05:33 PM

STF looking for attention about their efforts. This should be done by police. In any other country police do this. No need for any military for this civilian matter. And very few countries have a military our size relative to the population. STF while our country wants money from IMF you should be worried for your size. You are over sized by 10 times. Doing the police work will not save you from having to shed your big sized burden on the public purse
