Final answer:
Victor was arrested because he was falsely accused of assault by a group of hustlers who had physically assaulted him. After his arrest, Victor is waiting in prison for his trial, experiencing a prolonged period of imprisonment because of the lack of financial resources.
Step-by-step explanation:
Victor's arrest was caused by an incident where a group of hustlers stopped him and his friend Darren, taunting and physically assaulting Victor. After the hustlers left, Victor and Darren ran to the train station but were picked up by the police and taken to headquarters. The hustlers, in an attempt to protect themselves, falsely accused Victor and Darren of soliciting them. Victor was specifically accused of assault for allegedly touching one of the hustlers inappropriately.
After his arrest, Victor is waiting in prison but doesn't know what for. He has been in prison for nearly a month and is expected to remain there for at least 4 more months until he has a trial. This lengthy period in prison is due to Victor and Darren's inability to afford bail or an attorney.
