The lawyer said the sister came with Abu Trica’s mother, who was emotionally broken over her son’s situation. He added that the mother cried continuously and feared the worst if nothing was done to help her son.
Oliver Barker Vormawor added:
“She came with his mother. His mother wouldn’t stop crying and kept telling me, ‘Lawyer, if you don’t help my son, I will die’.”
According to him, Abu Trica’s sister became the one consoling their mother during the difficult moment. She reportedly tried to calm her down and assured her that things would eventually be fine.
