True, but since it is still alleged, people should avoid drawing conclusions before clearer information emerges.

The report says the men were said to be dressed as police officers, so it is important not to treat every detail as settled yet.

Authorities should clarify what happened quickly, secure the materials, and explain how distribution will continue without further disruption.
