This unfortunate incident arose from the armed forces action to defend public infrastructure from the unruly members of the public.
The perpetrators who instigated the common men and women to violence are walking around in their uniform red shirts with grins stretching from one ear to the other.
I am sure the report prepared by the Army will identify the real culprits so that justice could be meted to the unruly instigators.
In fact the actions of the instigators are similar to the tactics of the LTT who operated from behind the cover of human shields for 3 decades.
