In my opinion , engaging in violence or getting arrested is not necessary indicative of either being a criminal or "having mental issues" However committing suicide , if that's what happened, is irrefutable proof of a serious psychological problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF in prisons here the prisoners use pakomas/sarongs to hang other inmates and it is always suicide. The victims are never alone but there no witnesses.

Your version of what is normal safety procedure is based on what exactly? One of your netflix police series perhaps? Your type jump all over these "opportunities" to have a pop at RTP yet fully expect their unwavering help when it suits you and you need them. This idiot was causing mayhem and they rightly detained him. He was probably under the influence of something. This incident is tragic but it could have been avoided completely if he hadn't been behaving like a w____r in the first place.

My point should be something like all foreigners who die outside the auspices of a hospital are sent for autopsy. In any case, this case would be an automatic autopsy.

BestB Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 BS, when you taken into cells, belts and shoes are taken away, so he could not possibly have a rope in his pants, duty officers are NOT supposed to have lunch breaks, and when they step away, someone must man the post, in addition all the cells have CCTV, so there should not be any mystery, if indeed he hung himself, CCTV would have clear footage of all of it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
