'Wolf boy' arrested in Pakistan

This is not the first time that a Pakistan citizen has been arrested for trying to spend his holiday by scaring people. Pakistan’s law enforcement officers had detained a man on New Year’s eve from Peshawar for dressing up as a ‘wolf’, apparently to scare off people. However, they ended up posing alongside him for a picture. Social media users had shared images of the police officers standing next to the man who continues to wear his 'wolf' costume while being handcuffed. The peculiar incident ended up making netizens ‘happy’. Hundreds of netizens were left in splits about how ‘hilarious’ the image looks or the incident. Many others advocated that there was nothing wrong with the ‘wolf having some fun’. Some even suggested starting a trend ‘Free the wolf boy’, while others simply hailed the man for 'wearing a mask’ amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
