APEC security crackdown was world standard (sadly)
Fifty-two-year-old accountant Greg McLeay claims he was pushed to the ground and arrested on Friday after walking in front of an APEC motorcade. He spent 22 hours in custody before being released on bail. Police say he allegedly assaulted a police officer.
Footage from Saturday's protest shows an officer repeatedly punching a protester while he is on the ground.
Sworn police officers removed their identification badges before confrontations with protesters, a claim New South Wales Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione says will be investigated.
New South Wales Police Minister David Campbell denies officers were too heavy-handed and says people who feel they have been treated unfairly by officers can make a complaint.
Who are the police and who are they meant to be? A police force is meant to be a subgroup of the community it is sworn to protect.
