The Mossos d'Esquadra arrested a young woman on Wednesday after reducing her with a
Taser-
type electric gun in
front of a medical center in
Sabadell
(
Barcelona
), the Catalan police explained to Europa Press.
It happened around 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday, when the young woman had a visit at the medical center and "became nervous" because her mother, who was accompanying her, could not enter the building due to the restrictions due to the coronavirus.
The young woman allegedly caused damage to the facilities and confronted the health personnel, after which the Mossos were notified, against whom she adopted "an aggressive attitude" and they reduced her with the Taser pistol, the police force explained.
The
Sistema d'Emergències Mèdiques (SEM)
transferred her to a hospital center and she was arrested for an alleged crime involving two agents, who had minor injuries, and an alleged crime of damage to the facilities.
This Thursday, the spokesperson for the
Center for the Defense of Human Drets - Irídia
,
Andrés García Berrio
, shared a recording of the performance in a tweet collected by Europa Press, and stated: "Human rights organizations are opposed to the use of of electric taser guns because they can lead to a worrying increase in institutional violence. This action by Mossos is an example. "
Irída has also shared in a tweet the video of the performance, which she has described as "very worrying and disproportionate", and the recording shows a woman on the ground screaming while an agent next to her holds a taser gun, and two policemen cut down on the ground.
