  1. The police who are supposed to be the ones protecting innocent citizens are now their nightmares. After the brutal treatment melted out on him, they still extorted a whopping sun of #10,000 from him! What is the difference between the acts of these policemen and that of a common criminal that comes to rob? The earlier something serious is done about the police harassment and extortion, the better for us all.
