Online users noticed that one of the officers that was lined up stood out like a sore thumb. People were full of jokes after seeing how he missed his mark during their parade.
In a TikTok video posted by @shepisoranthako, the law officers were lined up in a row. They were meant to look organised and turn together at the same time, but one of them ruined it. An officer who was wearing a completely different coloured uniform turned in the wrong direction, and he tried to rectify it. The man was also a step behind with the salute, and everything looked awkward as they stomped one leg down during the drill.
