00:00Oh yes, I also received information that before a case in Amsana Mall,
00:07that a masked man was said to have beaten a person who was eating.
00:18And apparently, it was also found early, I'm not sure if it's true,
00:24that the person who was beaten was a Muslim.
00:27My advice to all parties, it's good if you want to prevent the spread,
00:31but you have to investigate first.
00:33As long as we are honest, we don't have the right to judge,
00:37and we don't have the right to report.
00:39Report it, let us do the investigation,
00:42and do the arrest of the perpetrator,
00:45or issue a notice, then the law will be corrected.
00:49Don't make a personal move,
00:52he's not only breaking the law,
00:57I hope it doesn't happen again.
00:59Did you receive a report from the police about the incident?
01:02No, I believe it's an act of independence,
01:06and whatever your body says to the police,
01:10it's their right to express it.
