Probe launched after station head seen ‘manhandling’ citizen: Free State police have confirmed an investigation into a video making the rounds on social media showing what appears to be forceful handling by a station commander of a civilian.
A video emerged on Twitter on Tuesday showing an officer at the Ventersburg police station manhandling a citizen under the guise of placing him under arrest.
The officer is seen dragging the man to the holding cells while the man asks, “what are you doing?” before questioning why he is being arrested. “You are going to regret what you have just done,” the man is heard saying as his companion, who is taking the video, says the officer is the station commander.
The officer replied that the man is being arrested for assaulting a police official, which the man and his companion deny as they claim it was the other way around.
