It's astonishing to me that this violent action by a cult hasn't resulted in any arrests by the police nor any action by the government.

It's also weird that nobody on lemmy.nz felt the story was important enough to post and discuss.

"We will investigate thoroughly this entire incident and what we find in the investigation will lead us to a conclusion."

It will interesting to see what the conclusion is. If no consequences come of it I think that would effectively send the message that they do find such behaviour acceptable.

As I said there was a crowd, people were recording. The assailant was most likely instantly identified and pointed out to the police. The fact that they are supposedly investigating for a week says they aren't going to take this seriously.
