Prosecutors have ordered the detention of a police officer for four days pending investigation for permanently disfiguring a citizen after beating him and poking out his eye while stopped at a checkpoint.
After a forensic report confirmed the cause of the injury, the officer responded, saying he did not mean to poke the man’s eye. He explained they had an altercation when he was checking his car license.
