Quo vadis? When a group of citizens has a legitimate gripe and is denied the right to present a petition to the officials concerned, what recourse do they have? Do the police want them to turn around go back home and pretend all is well? Is all well for the policemen? Are they living comfortably in ever-spiralling cost of living? A constitutional right is being reneged on here.
