00:04But for sure there are some people who definitely know who that person is.
00:08His wife knows?
00:09Does his wife not know?
00:10His kids know?
00:11His parents know?
00:12His friends know?
00:13Or are even these people in dark?
00:16Think of a situation where this fellow engages in an act of rioting and returns home and
00:21is disowned by his wife.
00:23Would he still manage to remain the kind of ignorant figure that he is?
00:30Please tell me.
00:31But just as family members partake in the bribe money that you bring home, they also
00:36partake in all kinds of toxic attitudes that we have.

00:48name of religion, they would be socially ostracized?
00:52Would they have still dared to do what they are doing?
