Armed with placards bearing various inscriptions such as \u201cStudents Lives Matter,\u201d \u201cPlease Save Us From Robbers,\u201d and \u201cWe No Longer Sleep,\u201d the protesting students voiced their frustration and fear regarding the activities of suspected burglars in their off-campus hostels.<\/p>\n
