I'm a little confused by this comment, sorry. By "this," do you mean the image? It does say lawmakers, plural, and also specifies two. The image seems to be incorrect. I'm not assuming malice, and I believe they were probably posting with bad or incomplete information. Details of situations like this can be unclear as you're trying to follow them at home. But they said lawmakers, plural, and it is in fact a lawmaker, singular, who was not actually arrested, and his non-lawmaker brother, who was.
If you're talking about something in the article I shared, could you quote the passage that has you confused?
