Restraining ourselves

From Neraca

The triple murder in the Rohadi household is of profound concern to me. But even if the family had been murdered in the most cruel manner, it does not give the public the right to lose control of their emotions and destroy the suspect's home. This is directly opposed to the laws of our country.

I am worried and very depressed about the incident. I believe that public anger should be restrained, so innocents don't fall victim to unbridled public emotions.

I appeal to all citizens to help the police rather than destroy and create chaos.
