• 23 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the four were murdered by gangsters.

In the process, he thought that if he removed his identity card, then he will be spared. When he was trying to remove it, according to the brief that I got, the gangsters thought that he was removing a gun and they eventually shot him. view
