There’s a very disturbing video circulating on social media. It depicts a woman at Bantama Market who is tethered to an electric pole. It’s a terrible position; ropes are binding her tightly to the pole.
In the video, a different market vendor covers the restrained woman with a black plastic bag and begins to belittle her. This has made a lot of people quite unhappy and scared about how people are taking the law into their own hands in the community.
The woman who was bound, her name is yet to be made public but it appears that she is being accused of stealing. People are furious about the video and want the police to act quickly to stop it.
On social media, people frequently discuss how this isn’t the best course of action. They demand that the events be thoroughly investigated and that the perpetrators of the woman’s injuries face consequences.
This video circulating serves as a powerful reminder that using reason rather than force is the best approach to solve problems. All eyes are on the police to investigate this case and ensure that the woman receives justice.
