maybe he was illegal in the country as well, that maybe another reason for refusing medical care. Fear can also prevent him from giving further information, as he may well know who the guys were! Mr Go back to your country!
He is invoved in something and that is why he has refused treatment. There is more to this story than meets the eye.
Ok why are we even talking about this, I know we sure care of people but how do you care about someone that does care about themself and others because if they did it to him, their going to do it to other people, so refusing to provide police with any further information is like helping the criminals and doing that and refusing treatment only tell me its either 1 of 2 thing, either he is running scare or he knew them and plans to deal with them himself.
Sounds fishy!
