Brum is a wild place. a murder happened near Digbeth in Brum back in February and they still haven’t caught the killer who was walking with a limp.
I’m sure they’re all perfectly safe. You could probably find them sitting in the foyer of the nearest job centre, filling out their benefit form claims as we speak.
Happens every time it’s held in the U.K.
I knew when I saw the headline that they’d be Sri Lankan athletes. There’s a surprisingly long history of Sri Lankan athletes disappearing during or after sporting events abroad. Sometimes they’re found again, sometimes they’re never heard of again.
