The Commander said while firing shots, the police officers fired back and then ran away.
“I have given an instruction to the members of the solidarity forces that if they find two police officers walking together on the streets or roadblocks, they must just shoot them. Those police officers who claim they are not participating in the ongoing killing of civilians should demonstrate by giving us the names and pictures of those who killed civilians, otherwise we will continue targeting any police officer”, he said.
The Commander said they have realized that the police were torturing and killing people knowing that nothing would happen to them.
