We have been informed by
our clients that you confiscated their handphones.
We do
not understand the rationale for your unprecedented action. This
has caused turmoil in our clients’ business as well as
their day to day activities. We regard this as a serious breach
of our clients’ civil rights.
Please note that if
you do not release our clients’ handphones to them within
the next 48 hours, we are instructed to take the appropriate
action in recovery of the same.
Kindly revert soonest
possible.
Yours
faithfully,
