Hawka threatened to shoot the students if his demands were not met. He demanded the immediate resignation of the headmaster, a large sum of money, and a safe escape route. They called the police and negotiated with Hawke for several hours, trying to convince the headmaster to improve the quality of education, as well as put an end to corruption in the institution.
The situation was tense and the authorities were immediately called. The police surrounded the school building and tried to negotiate with Hawke, asking him to let the students go and hand over his weapons.
After several hours of negotiations, Hawke finally gave in. The students were released unharmed, and Hawke was detained by the police.
The incident shocked the entire country and drew attention to the need to invest in education and the prevention of violence in schools. The authorities have begun a discussion on how to improve the safety and quality of education in schools, seeking to prevent a recurrence of such situations.
