A normal magistrate will release those kids and advise them to regularise their possession simple. I think these boys just refused to bribe them. There is no offense there....

Does one need a licence to possess a satelite dish for WIFI? It means it is better to buy a Mifi device

They should have sent mere Police officers to confiscate those kits rather than senting the CID. The CID should be assigned to hunt murderers and drug traffickers not these kids trying to eke out a living through selling Starlink kits
