“Is there no handcuff or rope to tie him down?” He asked.

A man who walked up to them also demanded a rope to hold the victim down.

“Is there no rope to tie him? Are we just going to leave him in the boot like that? So, there is no handcuff up till now?” he also demanded.

“Stupid and useless man,” someone not seen on camera said.
