Lawless Society’s attack on M Ravi boomerangs into its own face

Lawless Society’s attack on M Ravi boomerangs into its own face

What goes around comes around. That's the saying. In the case of the Lawless Society vs M Ravi, it surely is true. Lawless Society thought it would be good to throw a pie into M Ravi's face.
