The people did not know that the person who tried to kidnap was a mentally challenged and it was only in a fit af anger and may be they were parents who know the value of children they decided to assault the man which was not a pre planned attack so the law should be lenient in such a circumstances but the PI says people should not take law in their hands.

The PI and his police force also should not take law in their hands while dealing with public in police station.
