    Our police is very efficient of raiding FB parties in advance but couldn't prevent easter attacks. Shame!

    Better carge for possession of illicit drugs rather then for sexual misconduct.

    These news reports about FB parties are misleading aren't they. It's not like Facebook organized the party or invited anyone.

    The drug menace should be completely eradicated at all costs. Rigorous jail sentences should be given to perpetrators with no sym;pathy.
