A magistrate's court in Petaling Jaya today acquitted four police personnel accused of assaulting businessman Chia Buang Hing on the grounds that Chia's injuries occurred during his arrest.
In delivering his judgment, magistrate Nik Mohamed Fadli Nik Azlan said he made the decision based on three issues, namely whether Chia's arrest was legal, whether he was assaulted, or if evidence had been planted.
He said the police made a lawful arrest as Chia had driven a car without road tax and insurance, and he had resisted arrest.
"The arrest was legal," Nik Mohamed said.
The four acquited are Norzali, Mohd Azwan Hassan, Ahmad Saifullah Osman and Alizulhafiz Abdul Ghafar.
