Again Political and Religious beliefs and influences disrupts the course of justice.

People were killed...murdered and a thousand if not more were killed in the rioting which followed in the days before and after. Yes, witnesses were abused and treated unfairly by the goverment...yes they were beaten into withdrawing there statements...all because some men want power and will do anything to get to it.

Hopefully the people involved will now recieve justice they deserve because of outside influence.
