HSP further claimed that, ‘lack of action by the authorities has emboldened the perpetrators of violence’ the party says, “Despite having CCTV footage and video evidence of these attacks, it is concerning that the police have not been able to make any arrests.

We believe that the symbolic Helmet Rally is a powerful message of unity and resilience in the face of violence.” Added the statement.
