First of all what does the army chief have to do with crowd control??
The police and only the police should be in charge of crowd control - except of course in countries ruled by dictators the army has always been used in "controlling" the people. The passing of laws is a political process in which the army chief should neither have a say nor a public opinion - what he thinks in private is his problem.
He still insists that the army entered the department store to put out the fire - with what? Their hands? Rifles?? The pictures and video show clearly they carry no firefighting equipment!
There is photographic and video evidence that they where in there before the fire started - there excuse when presented with the evidence was back then - "they where in there because they where guarding the place" - well if arsonists made it past the people guarding the entrances and the inside of the store - then it looks to me they where pretty useless in doing their job as guards!
Then he goes on and says some of the stolen fire arms have been recovered and security been tightened - not a word about how this can happen over and over again - not a word about responsibility or accountability - the last statement though is beyond believe - so the army chief understands that his people could have the need to steal and sell war weapons to have extra income ?? I am speechless now!
Well a countries leaders - and the people they appoint to certain positions are the reflection of its peoples moral values, inteligence and determination to hold them accountable - do the maths - there is not much hope here!

Mostly agree with what was said.
The army chief is under the command of the Prime Minister not vice versa.
