What is Happening Here
What is happening in this country?
Power is taking away everything
Women, respect, life!
Again,
Thee accused criminals are playing with the law
The media is a slave bought by the government,
Honestly
They are keeping their mouths shut
to protect their interests and lives
They are also putting the helpless to death
There is no such thing as law here
There is no state constitution
All that is the seizure of absolute power.
