  • What is wrong with this police officer ? Why does he take the law into his hand ?. Why do we have courts? Why do we have judges? Why do we have solicitors? If police could take law into their hands and give verdicts and punishment. Fire him now and teach a lesson to all others . Do not have a mercy on this kind of officers. They behave badly
