TVNET has already written that a naked woman with a knife was detained on Wednesday, on the embankment of November 11, in Riga.
–
As can be seen in a video posted by a Facebook user, which is no longer available, the woman is originally on her knees with a knife in her hand. The woman puts the knife on the pavement and the municipal police officer pushes it aside.
–
The naked woman is then laid on the ground.
–
The police explain the circumstances of the incident.
–
Toms Sadovskis, a representative of the Riga Municipal Police, told the TVNET portal that while patrolling the Old Town on Wednesday, shortly after 11:00, Riga Municipal police officers noticed a naked, blood-stained woman holding a knife on the street.
–
The woman was detained and handed over to doctors. It was found out that before that the woman had been in an apartment in Old Riga together with a man.
–
Arriving at the apartment, the policemen met a man who also had obvious injuries. The man was also placed in medical care.
–
Information about what happened has been handed over to the State Police. Currently, the State Police is working at the scene and continues to explain the circumstances of what happened.
–
In its turn, the State Police indicated to the portal TVNET that in the apartment where the State Police carried out operative measures, it was possible to find narcotic substances for which an examination had been ordered – criminal proceedings have been initiated under Article 253 of the Criminal Law on illicit manufacture, acquisition, , transportation and transfer.
–
The police are currently continuing to work and explain the exact circumstances of what happened.
–
A woman in a naked public place is brutally laid on the pavement, with the cop’s knee pressed to her neck (!). Such should be the detention? Or @RigasPP explain the rationale for doing so?

Floide will be called again soon. The police are acting normally. Just surprised there were no gloves.

And imho you should not teach the police to do their job, just as the police do not teach you to work ????????????

But this is a woman. And, it is not yet known – the attacker or the victim. Let’s wait @State police information about what happened (probably really @RigasPP there are terrible Malachi and the reflection on the video is a tricky understanding of the order – how to be). However, asking questions is not forbidden, right? ????

It would be nice if @RigasPP launch an information campaign, in which the most sensitive people on Twitter could apply for a police crew to go on a night patrol. For example, in Sarkandaugava.

I assume that in this video you are also on the human side, because the police used force?

Cops are not people? Show me the civilized country where society is on the side of a bloody man with a knife. Also – the police did not use force or violence.

It looked after the unreasonable use of physical force. And it has nothing to do with the amount or nature of expressions.

Rights are a good thing, but if you can’t deal with a woman with a knife that didn’t resist, then what are they about policies? Some losers would be better to knit socks at home.
