There we were left to the ASF for more than 8 hours. We weren’t even provided with clean water to drink. After four hours of flight and so much waiting we got restless and tried to protest. We asked the officers to tell us why we were being held there but they never told us.
To counter the protest, the Airport Security Force (ASF) was called by the officials. One of the officers was seen punching a protester.
