In a video on X, several young men had gathered, possibly to have fun. Some of the men walked up to Abu Trica to shake his hand and greet him.

While that was going on, one man who was wearing a white shirt removed a firearm from his pocket, raised it into the air and pulled the trigger a few times.

Another man who was also holding a gun gave his ammunition to a man wearing a camouflage military uniform. There were other men in uniform at the gathering.

It is not known whether the men are security personnel or have just been dressed in the uniform.

There was music playing while some men also drummed and danced at the gathering. Meanwhile, Abu Trica sat down and conversed with other people present.
