    If he is not ready to serve the ix years sentence, then is one alternative. Make him serve the full 19 years, and there will be peace in the country.

    DETENTION - in school ? Friday, 21 September 2018 06:40 AM

    " release from the given detention." - surprising in the use of the word "detention" - This fellow's appeal is for being sentenced to 19 years Rigorous Imprisonment. Is it to give a different impression to the public (when reading the news item) - He is not in a detention centre - He is an ordinary prisoner in state prison.

    why you need a release? are you a peace dove? deserve your destiny.
