Note: We
are unable to verify the authencity of these sources, however,
similar recounts of the incident were heard from many witnesses on
the ground.
So you’ve heard
it from many sources, both on social media and over the
news.
But I’ve just
received first hand news from witnesses at the scene.
The riot was
sparked off because a bus ran over an Indian (suspected
foreigner/Bangladesh), resulting in his head being CUT
OFF.
The accident
happened within the area where many Indians were
drinking and they rushed up to see
what happened…
The ambulance
arrived late, hence the police officers were the first to be
present.
Apparently, it
was understood that the police officers could be those that patrol
little india on a regular basis- and they are known to be rather
“nasty” and cocky towards the Indian foreign workers there (- info
gathered from the Mustafa folks)
From the witness
itself: “The bus accident was the reason BUT not the TRIGGER of this
entire riot.”
The police
officers who were first sent to control the situation might have
behaved aggressively towards the mob, hence causing the drunk mob
to retaliate (along with their suppressed anger towards the local
police)
Their anger
escalated when they saw their fellow countryman with his head
decapitated- lying there, helpless, with no ambulance in
sight.
And yet, the
police officers were still pushing them around.
That’s only when
they incited the mob and burnt the police cars.
By far, the
media has not spoken about the reason behind this!
At least, now we
have the story from our fellow Indians.
There’s
always two sides to a story.
The government
needs to give us the truth.
