  1. If you were not wasting your resources chasing harmless Pilato by now you would have arrested this criminal. Now you are endangering society with your political focus of crime

  2. Police have somany cases to sort out then concentrate on petty cases like pilato.The same applies to our courts.We
    find petty cases in our courts which waste time on small cases.Our jails are
    full of people who have not been tried or
    jailed for stealing abag of mealiemeal.

  3. “The body had a deep cut on the upper lip where she was bleeding profusely and whitish foam running from her mouth,” she disclosed. Is white form not a sign of chamba? Chamba normally produced white form after smoking.
