... as I mentioned and responded to someone else on this thread ...
I don’t know who or why this was done … the disturbing part of this story is that it happened and it should be investigated further. Police shouldn’t be used by any government/institution/group/individual to intimidate political/cultural/religious rivals.
The additional disturbing part of this is that yes you are right … there doesn’t seem to be any media coverage about this … even though advocates have made a media release about it themselves …

As I also mentioned, the story and video were also released by Samira Mohyeddin, a multi-award-winning journalist, documentary maker, and producer at CBC Radio One’s The Current.
I don’t think someone with a career like Mohyeddin would put her reputation on the line just to release a video that wasn’t credible. She released it on her own media platform ‘On The Line Media’ but she is still a recognized and acclaimed journalist.
This is a highly disturbing story because it happened and it is also deeply disturbing that it is also being completely ignored.
You are right in pointing out the lack of coverage … we should keep asking questions about this to verify everything … but it should also be equally disturbing that no one wants to touch this story or even acknowledge it.
