> There was a threat there of the head of state. As police we have to react.

> Remember, we have a history in this country where the Prime Minister was killed in the House.

> So we are not going to wait too much to see if there was blood flowing or not. We had to act.

> It’s unfortunate that it happened but I’m very sure that is correct the police had no other way of responding.
