Why does every news take religious political overtures among commentators instead of understanding gravity & seriousness of crime. Like a pet waiting for a buiscuit to be thrown. This act or crime is mindlessly endangering lives of coastal residents & adding to sea erosion

Millions of tonnes iron ore miners escaped without any cases. Poor people removing few loads of sand became miners because hafta was not paid.
