The day I was arrested for not wearing a mask

It still gives you chills when you think about it – a mean faced and determined man suddenly grabs you, and without the benefit of introductions, handcuffs you and leads you to a waiting police car. Your greatest crime? Not wearing a mask.

He grabs another woman and asks his female colleague to escort her to the waiting police pick-up. Cuffed, for the first time in your life, you find it difficult to board the car. There are other culprits, some with forlorn and sad faces, and some did not betray any emotions as thoughts raced in your head where the whole thing would lead.
