The court upheld the acquittal of the traffic police officers who broke the driver’s arm during the arrest. In this respect informs IA “Version-Saratov”.
At the beginning of 2021, in Saratov, traffic police inspectors asked the driver of a colored VAZ-2107 to stop, after which the chase began. Traffic inspectors at the Regional Directorate of the Ministry of Interior detained the 21-year-old driver who did not want to give documents and who challenged him.
“In order to stop a citizen’s unlawful actions, a special technique of ‘bending his arm from behind’ was applied to him. The citizen was injured as a result of the use of physical force,” the statement said.
At the hospital, the driver’s shoulder was fractured. The public prosecutor demanded 3 and 4 years imprisonment for the traffic policemen. The Volsky District Court did not see corpus delicti in the actions of the defendants and acquitted them. At a new meeting, the Saratov District Court upheld the decision of the first-instance court and did not satisfy the appeal.
