The woman said she asked her husband how they will manage their family if he was sanctioned and things go worst.

Mrs Victoria said her husband was one, who will not refrain from speaking the truth because of fear or favour.
“Day before yesterday, he was on off and he resumed duty yesterday.
“He made a video call with the children after he resumed at the office.
“Not up to 30 minutes later, he called that they’ve arrested him and they are taking him to the guard room. He said if you hear from me, fine, if you don’t hear from me, fine.
“My husband’s main issue/complaint is that there is no ammunition to fight in the North-East, no ammunition, if you complain it’s a problem.
“They don’t pay them well. Navy get more pay, army don’t get all their allowances that should be given to them
“I can’t hear from him, they’ve collected his phone and his colleagues don’t want to release information about him.”
