Allegations of Police Misconduct
The family states that the police were searching for the boy’s father because he is wanted in connection with a human trafficking case. When officers couldn’t find him, they allegedly took his son to the police station. The family claims the boy was severely beaten, leaving him unable to move properly. This raises concerns about police tactics and whether proper procedures were followed.
