Tears

Last night, while Farhana, Murni and I were having dinner in Bangsar, we got a call from Suren that Azamudin, a key witness to the shooting of Aminul Rasyid Amzah was asked by the police to follow them to the shooting scene and he needed to be accompanied by lawyers. We rushed to Shah Alam IPK to accompany Azamudin.

As we were walking up the hill, he was telling me how he escaped from the beating by 4-5 policemen after the car crashed into a drain. while we were on our way down, I asked him how he felt when he was running for his life and all he could see was one police officer aiming a gun at him and the other was counting 1,2..

He said "saya sangat takut kak, rasa nak menangis tapi air mata saya tak boleh keluar...bila saya balik rumah, saya nak menangis tapi saya tak tau kenapa air mata saya tak boleh keluar".(I was so scared that I wanted to cry, but tears couldn't come out..when I went home, I wanted to cry, but still tears couldn't come out)

All I could do was pat his back. I could never possibly imagine myself being in his shoes.
