These police officers were certainly aware of what they are not legally allowed to do; they did it anyway, assuming the public is uninformed about their rights. People like this are not working for the people, but against us.

According to the ruling, the man burned plastic bags near a park in Nishinomiya in October 2015 after lighting a candle and incense while his caretaker was not around. The police were alerted to the incident and took the man to the police station.

Lit a candle and incense...ok, so maybe the plastic bag he was carrying those items in caught fire by accident from the lit candle perhaps? Granted it was not safe for him to be doing that without proper supervision, but no need to haul him into the cop shop!
