Introduction The continuous abuse of debtors by certain police officers, as well as, in more severe cases, the false or wrong accusations and arraignments of debtors in court as though they had committed a crime, have made this article necessary.

Such Police officers are acting illegally, and those responsible need to be held accountable and punished.

Creditors must file a civil suit rather than pressurising the Police to institute criminal action against their debtors to recover their money.

This article also aims to inform citizens on their rights in the event that they find themselves in a similar circumstance.
