Just as you saying it was more likely he was invited by the police to attend, that is not certain either and at this point in time not something you yourself know for sure to be the case too.

Best end this here Omah because I don't, with the fullest respect to you as both a person and member, enjoy much in the way as to debating with you.
My apologies for that too but I guess we are just people who are poles apart.
