Took it for Halloween.
This is new year ,not Halloween
A man in Peshawar felt like bringing Halloween traditions into the mix on New Year’s Eve in Peshawar. The man donned a bat’s mask and was having fun scaring people until the police rained on his parade. Police arrested the man, but no one knows if public complaint was made or police just felt like stepping in.
