Answer:
Satish was standing on the balcony watching the last rays of the sun. Loud angry voices in the streets below distracted his attention and he ran down the stairs to see what was going on.
When he got downstairs, he saw a small mob holding a little girl of not more than fourteen years.
Jungle justice was rare but not uncommon in Mehzyhr so Satish was filled with dread, especially when he heard them accuse the young girl of stealing some yards of expensive clothing.
Satish knew he had to act fast, he had to do something, but meeting an angry mob that wanted blood was out of the question. He did the next best thing, he called the police.
Satish had to describe the urgency of the situation so the local police could arrive on time and save the poor girl's life, because the police in Mehzyhr were known to drag their feet when responding to distress calls.
Five minutes later, a police van arrived, dispersed the crowd and took the young girl into custody.
Moral of the story: Say no to jungle justice.
