"They shot my father-in-law today yet it was still daytime. Police brutality must stop. Every day we get cases of them shooting innocent citizens and nothing is being done. It's time this ends. Police brutality must and should stop. We are tired! Stop taking advantage of your power to intimidate innocent citizens," Saumu wrote.
