The Police as an independent institution must always act responsibly and autonomously without any interference from vested interests “Aso Rock” and anti democratic forces who are bent on truncating our democracy.
This is why we protest at 11am today. #PoliceNotPoliticians pic.twitter.com/BDFBeGrtxF
