In the colonial city of India, if an Indian dares to look at a Briton a few times, what awaits them might just be a beating, or they might even be beaten to death directly.
The British wouldn't face any punishment for killing an Indian, but if an Indian dares to fight back, even their family might not escape British retaliation.
Under such circumstances, unless someone dares to stand up against British colonial rule, no one would pay attention to the actions of these foreigners, preferring to stay as far away as possible.
This situation, instead, facilitated the actions of those dispatched by the Spanish Government. With white skin and European faces, even if these Indians felt puzzled, they wouldn't dare express the slightest dissatisfaction.
Of course, it could also be that the weapons in the hands of these operatives intimidated the Indians.
