During the approach, the woman also reacted aggressively against those who were trying to protect the child, demanding the immediate presence of the police. Police found that the child was without a diaper, had traces of urine and feces on his clothing, and appeared hungry and thirsty.
She said she did this to “correct” her son. Due to the resistance and risk to the safety of the child, members of the public and the woman herself, it was necessary to use handcuffs.
The Guardianship Council was convened and took over guardianship of the child, guaranteeing specialized care. The woman was taken to the 15th police station, where she was accused of mistreatment.
