De Police serious or wah?!

[RBphoto]

That is why whe you get in a situation like this, is to kill the facker, and you say you took the weapon from him. If I have to go to jail for beating up a theif, it better be for a good reason.

[rollingstock]

RAW home made pepper sauce!

keep a small bottle on yuh, throw it into the face of the bandit, then BEAT up he KANT!
No weapon! no charge!

Even worse than the offensive weapon, noxious liquid separate more serious offence.

[nareshseep]

A security associate of mine was leaving his office when he spotted someone breaking into his vehicle. When he challenged the thief, he was attacked. In defense he pulled his telescopic baton and dealt the would be car thief a sound cut arse.

You know the (Arima) Police tell him he used unnecessary force and they want to charge him for assault? Even coercing the injured thief to press charges?!

WTF?!

boi that is rel ignorance... have faith in the TTPS, with entry requirements of 5 cxc

[VexXx Dogg]

I just had to revisit this to make sure I didnt misread earlier.

He shoulda beat the firetrucking police too for being so dotish.

Cant he make a report to the police complaints authority?

dey have ah OJT handling dat.

[DrunkenMaster16]

i think nothing in this country surprises me anymore.
But it is world class fawkery.

+1

Personally if this were to happen to me i want the officers badge number, every single media source will get a detailed account of what happened including Mr.occifa's #. Police aren't doing their job's so we'll take the weapons and do it ourselves.

(glad i know plenty lawyers)

[Michael Knight...]

That sucks. Stupidest thing I ever heard.

[2 d Max Auto]

dat is why these bandits soo BRAZEN and bOlDfAcE!
dey know de law on dey side!

...........and then the politicians say they're doing their best............wonder why the state of crime is what it is and tell me that I am the problem to fix crime I have to fix criME

madcoolieboy: that is real crap dread..... personally i woulda beat the crap outta him knock out some teeth and break some bones......and leff he *meow* right dey to bleed..

agreed.........anyway I'm sure lola is right it's one of their friends or family........he commits his crime in that district cause when you go to the district police it's his friends and family you're meeting

[bluespeed]

like allyuh forget I get charge for wounding to do grievous bodily harm or what to a bandit I found inside my parents house........

the same police i worked alongside in JAPS charged me...... and because i pleaded guilty to "BEATING A BANDIT" i had to leave the TTR because of that incident....

my mistake is that I let him live

[TriniVdub]

wow you should of planted a knife on him or something, that way you could have easily said it was more self defense than vigilantism

[Greypatch]

dem police who dealt with him eh know from dey arse to their elbow.

from what was posted in the opening of this thread

[illumin@ti]

Be objective about what im going to say now.

The facts of the incident are that your friend caught a bandit trying to break into his car, he challenged the bandit, bandit attacked him, he beat the bandit severely and then referred him to the police.

Theres a problem here that i need you to see.. its the line between criminal justice and natural justice. The police are in fact right. If you want to go about it to the letter: Your friend saw said man trying to break open his car. What was supposed to happen was he either beat the bandit mercilessly and send him on his way or subdue him reasonably until the police arrived. The complexities arise when the bandit is beaten to the point where he needs medical attention. First question the magistrate is going to ask is how did he sustain such injuries, and the medical from the hospital will show this. At the end of the day, your friend is not judge, jury and executioner. in the eyes of the law, when brought before the court, it will be ALLEGED that the man tried to or was in the process of breaking into the car, the Adjudication of his guilt or innocence rests in the hands of the magistrate and on the weight of the supporting evidence and or testimony of witnesses. Your friend did indeed assault the bandit. The bandit can prove that he was assaulted. can your friend prove that he was the man that tried to break into the car?.. The law provides for what can be PROVEN, not what you know.

IMO, he shoulda break de bandit both hands, fingers etc and let him sulk off to de hospital... you cant exact natural justice and then try to run him thru the system. The system is not set up to protect the bandits at all, but for everyone.

Tell yuh padna that next time he catches a bandito,, fvck him up proper and then run him, if yuh want de man to do time, he cyar reach in front de magistrate inna state of 'disrepair'

[ek4ever]

like nati said your friend made 1 fatal mistake...involve TT Police...he should've just beat the crap outta de thief and then go on his way....me and my padnas beat up 2 bandits who try to rob us armed with knives...we leave them almost dead and went on our way...its them to ketch they arse to get to a hospital and I'm sure they not going to police to make a report

[Shango_13]

f de police and f they woman too

This is an EPIC truth right there. In this life, you have to make this fact work for you.

[Chimera]

Im surprised they didnt slap on a charge for possession of a weapon, or use of weapon. Batons are illegal to carry, i still carry on though. The teef is probably one of their informants that they leave on the loose

what?

Since when? I always carry around a collapsible baton

[Chimera]

btw...did he call the police and tell them he caught a thief?

How the police even find out about that?

[Trini Hookah]
