Shortly after the bloody riots of 1988, he commits an act which jeopardizes the entire district: Unable to stand the noise from a rooftop loudspeaker broadcasting a local fundamentalist group’s propaganda, he rips the speaker out . The extremists regard this act as deliberately provocative and aim to make an example of the culprit.
