[S.Y.A]

Good. Now make the identities of the hoarders public, sieze their businesses, and hang them and their partners.

They still need legal cover in my opinion.

Government does not intend to prosecute sincerely either.

These young folks are being exploited.

 

[Pandora]

These Robinhood Ertuguls should know that they have no legal cover for their activities some of which can land you in jail.

True should have been led by Gullu Butts who used to work under a legal cover alongside police.

 

[Yaseen1]

every time they make such proceeding and ik take notice wheat price goes high as happening now in punjab,govt should focus on producing actual results instead of such tactics

may be these actions are planned as attempt to legalize such tiger force for political reasons,when govt has support of rangers,and police as well as intelligence agencies then such operations not need tiger force if they are actually true

They still need legal cover in my opinion.

Government does not intend to prosecute sincerely either.

These young folks are being exploited.

I thought you were in favour of revolution. Few people standing up to hoarding changed your entire perspective.
Yes they need legal protection to protect them from Lohar high court, which might take a suo motto notice on humanitarian grounds to protect the theft rights of these mill owners.
On a serious note yes government needs to properly prosecute them, but we all know how long their reach is. Just take a look at how Sindh high court and then supreme court stopped gov from taking action against sugar mafia.
