A person who pressed the bell of the police station in the Horni Pocernice district of Prague, the capital of Czechia, was beaten by a police officer who came out from inside. While the other police officers who came out of the police station did not prevent their colleagues, another person at the scene recorded the events moment by moment.
DETENTION
In the footage, it was seen that the police, who came out of the police station, pushed the person who pressed the bell to the ground, and then when he was trying to stand up, the police pushed him again and prevented him from standing up. The man who remained on the ground was handcuffed and detained after being punched repeatedly by the police.
While the images caused a reaction on the social media, the other police officers who left the police station were criticized for not intervening in the incident. It is not yet clear why the police beat the man.
