The Indian delegation marched into the Opening Ceremony just like the other 203 countries at the Summer Olympics. A flag bearer led the procession and was accompanied by a female sign holder and a young child ambassador. Behind them, the nation's athletes marched; India's team wore yellow saris and turbans. Someone else was there too, an unexpected intruder in the procession. She wasn't part of the lead group and wasn't an athlete.

It shouldn't have been possible for someone to have made it that far, with no badges, not only improperly dressed but color designed to stand out from the yellow the Indian athletes were wearing. And even if she started, she should have been immediately spotted by the team and security, and arrested right there. Not "should have" as in it would have been a good idea, but "should have" as in there would be zero possibility of avoiding getting tackled by ten cops and having her smug grin bashed in before she was smothered in anti-explosive wrap and dragged away.
I don't buy it. It stinks.
You mean the Perkawe tribe. Always lost, asking for direction. ‘Excuse me, can you help? We’re the Perkawe...’
She can’t be Hekawi- they’re afraid of the dark.
