Ceesay,
That's absolutely out of order and a shameful act on your part.
If indeed you have got evidence that they are guilty of some crime,
then share it with us and I shall withdraw this statement forthwith and
also ask for your forgiveness.

They need all our support at the moment, even though I do not know anyone of
them personally and albeit the fact that I live so far away from them, they
are still in  my prayers and thoughts.

May god help us all.

Manneh

But we can only assume what they were doing was
illegal
-- so do not lose too much sleep over it.  When a
person obeys the law, they and their families will not
be punished.  But now look -- their families will
suffer because of their wickedness.  This is Allah's
justice.

Where in the scriptures do they find that it is OK
to commit illegal acts?  People think they can get
away with such things, but they will get what they
deserve in the end.  Thus this is a very, very
good thing.
