Well, in this era of social media, it's now easy for people to spread rumors and provide false information. However, today I would like to talk about a time when I received wrong information regarding one of my university friends. This incident made me fall into a rather uncomfortable situation. Actually, last month during the quota movement, I was really worried about our country's ongoing situation. And that's why I went to social media to, um, know the latest updates about the protests. Because the protesters were updating about their movement, uh, time to time on social media accounts. Um, but uh, when I was scrolling through my newsfeed, I suddenly saw a post and was shocked by the news that he was shot by police during the protest and died. At that time, I had no idea what to do. I was just thinking about him. I couldn't sleep the whole night. And the following day, I decided to visit his place and give my condolences to his family. Um, by the way, when I arrived at his place, I was shocked to see that he was playing an online game on his computer and I didn't even see any bruises on his body. He seemed completely okay, and I was perplexed. Mhm.
