A 23-year-old Blue Downs woman is considering suing the police after being arrested while sitting on a bench in Sea Point and then being locked in a cell for the night.

Cape Town -

She said she was taking selfies at about 9:20am when she was approached by a police officer who asked her what she was doing there. She took a video which clearly shows the police officers who were searching her bag, a Sergeant Smith and Constable Prince. Mcinjana said she was accused of being a robber. “She said I used the remote to rob people’s cars. I tried to explain that the remote wasn’t even working but I was using it as a key holder.”

Mcinjana said some of the officers at the station told her that the way she was being treated was wrong.
