Scope and content : May 6, 1969. Badin went to visit a sub-district headman and told a story about a man who liked drinking. When he was drunk and had carried a knife, he slashed a villager's water pump. The villager reported the incident to the sub-district headman ('Kamnan'). He had tried to settle the conflict, so he asked the accused to pay damages to the owner for the pump repairs. However, when the owner could not find the spare part to fix the pump, he wanted to buy a new one. The offender was willing to pay for new equipment. In such a case agreement could be easily be reached because both were in the same village, and the accused had accepted the mistake and was willing to pay the damages.
