Bro, I saw that news too. Honestly, I don't know the full details about what exactly happened inside that prison, but from what I read, it seems like inmates were protesting on the rooftop because they claimed guards were abusing them and even shooting at them. When I was in Doha, I remember hearing similar stories from other countries — prisoners protesting over harsh treatment. But for the real scoop, you better check reliable international news sites, machang. _(In plain English: I don't know all the specifics, but the news says Venezuelan prisoners protested on a roof alleging abuse and shootings by guards.

Oh machang, I saw that news too. Apparently some Venezuelan prisoners climbed onto a roof and protested saying guards were abusing them and even shooting at them. It's a pretty serious situation over there, but honestly I don't know much beyond what the news reported. Not something I deal with here in Kuwait, yako. _(In plain English: I saw that news too.
