Comment on "Light deflection with torsion effects caused by a spinning cosmic string"

In this comment, we showed that the line element ("metric'') worked by Jusufi (Eur. Phys. J. C 76: 332, 2016) is incorrect since he worked with a spinning cosmic string with torsion in $(2+1)$-dimensions (and in polar coordinates), which cannot happen. Indeed, as in $(2+1)$-dimensions there are no screw dislocations or screw torsion (a consequence of the absence of the third spatial dimension, i.e., of the $z$-axis), and being a cosmic string with torsion a type of screw dislocation, but of cosmic origin (i.e., are cosmic dislocations), implies that a $(2+1)$-dimensional cosmic string does not have/carry torsion (since $dz=0$). Therefore, the line element worked by Jusufi is physically incoherent/unacceptable and inappropriate for the research/study.
