The Baccoo Speaks

The country seems awash with gunmen who are content to take a small fee to do the bidding of a rich and vindictive official. The police caught up with some of them recently and managed to get a number of guns off the streets by arresting some people who were either in the process of committing a crime or who had committed a crime and failed to escape.
Sadly, this is only the beginning of a trend that will continue as more and more the country produces desperate young men bent on making a living using their limited mental resources.

A drowning would occur in the ocean as a fisherman attempts to free a seine that is caught up in some driftwood. He would become entangled and by the time his colleagues recognize his plight it would be too late.

It would be a clear case of carelessness when the authorities arrest a senior government official for fraud. This official had been under suspicion for some time.
The fraud would involve collecting unclaimed money from the aged and the destitute.
