'I am not a criminal and I’m definitely not a threat to anyone. I am five feet tall and disabled'
A woman who claims she was forcefully arrested by South Wales Police officers has received £40,000 compensation from the force and a written apology.
She claimed an officer then put their hand through the window, turned a key in the lock in the door and “barged” into the property. “They grabbed me aggressively, pinned me to the wall and put my hands behind my back in an abnormal position while they handcuffed me,” Louise claimed of what she called a “traumatic” experience.
"I am not dangerous in any way, I am not a criminal and I’m definitely not a threat to anyone. I am five feet tall and I am disabled. "I couldn’t get into the van without using my arms because of my disabilities. In that process my trousers fell down for a second time while we were outside. I felt extremely vulnerable, and I then began to suffer shock and I was very anxious. I also remember being freezing cold."
The apology, signed off by Deputy Chief Constable Rachel Bacon, reads: “I am the Deputy Chief Constable and I have been involved in considering your claim against the police. I am sorry for the actions of our officers at your home on September 12, 2020, when you were arrested and handcuffed and I appreciate the distress caused to you.
