A video circulated showing an elderly man allegedly placing a charm on someone’s land, drawing a crowd as people questioned him. Many viewers expressed shock that such practices still occur, and the clip generated intense reactions online.
Among the responses, one comment called for violence, stating, “Make una beat him. That’s when the truth will come out.” This reaction is deeply troubling. It openly encourages mob violence and torture as a means of extracting information, which is both unlawful and inhumane.
Calling for physical assault undermines due process and normalizes brutality, especially against the elderly. Even if an accusation is serious, violence is never a legitimate way to seek truth or justice.
Situations like this require lawful investigation and restraint, not mob action. Encouraging assault only escalates harm and risks turning suspicion into irreversible tragedy.
