A wrongful arrest that led to police brutality, and the man who was wrongfully identified was also charged with, assaulting the police, because he'd fought, back! On crime and punishment, off of the Front Page Sections, translated…
Last year, the patrol officer, Weng from the Yongfu Subprecinct of Sanchong Police Substation, mistook Huang for a fugitive, arrested him, the two started brawling, as Huang was arrested and taken in, the police found that they'd made a wrongful arrest, and the case gained the attention.
The Hsinbei District Attorney's Office finished examining the case yesterday, indicted the officer, Weng on charges of assault, public humiliation, and forced behaviors, while Huang was also charged with assault.
This case of mistaken identity happened on September 20th of last year, the retired serviceman from the Aerial Specialty Fighter unit, Huang on the evening, passed through the Houzhuwei Street of Sanchong, was mistaken by the officers, Weng and Jiang as a suspect with an active arrest warrant, they started brawling, Huang slammed Weng down, then, sat on top of his, and started beating him like crazy, as Jiang went up to separate them, he was also, kicked in the chest by Huang; afterwards, Huang was pinned to the pavement, at this time, the officer, Weng continued to beat him, and started cussing at Huang, and sprayed the pepper spray on Huang's eyes, causing him to sustain a laceration on his right eye, bleeding from both ears, he'd sustained multiple contusions all over his body.
The police took Huang in, and then, they'd realized, that they'd, arrested the wrong man, the outside world criticized the police for this wrongful arrest, the police department ordered a full investigation, to clarify the faults, to punish the officers for using brutal forces in making the arrest, the chief of police of Hsinbei City apologize in front of the press for this too.
Yesterday the D.A.'s office concluded the investigation, believed that the officer, Weng, subdued Huang, and when Huang wasn't fighting back, he'd still used pepper spray, and started cussing him out, and forcefully took Huang into the restrooms as he'd taken him into the police station, that the officer had broken the laws of assault, public humiliation, and forced act, and the officer Weng was, indicted, the rest of the officers who were involved didn't get charged with anything; while Huang's slamming Weng onto the pavements, and beaten him up, and he was also sued, the D.A. charged him with assault as well.
And so, this is a case of, wrongful arrest that turned, violent, and in the end, both the wrongfully arrested and the police officer who'd used violence to take the man in were, charged. This still just showed, how we can, easily lose control, when we're, wearing that, uniform, this is, police brutality.
