I think people were definitely more reluctant to intervene because the two parties were related to each other. There is a chance (quite high) that if a conflict occurs (e.g. "boyfriend" and passerby getting into blows, or the police gets called), the "girlfriend" would end up siding with the "boyfriend". This would be the same if both involved parties had familial relations. It's not that we're not Samaritans; rather, we might be blamed by the victim if we get too assertive. It just doesn't pay to be Samaritans in most scenarios.
why yall make Fauzi sit through it? I know he himself wanna stop it hahaha
