Question: Are you allowed to legally document Police brutality?

First conclusions
in legal proceedings
SSI-Media vs. Stadtpolizei Zurich
for abuse of authority.
Dear friends of bad taste Zurich, 2.10.01
Now it's official: Police files and Protocols of the inquiry against fallible city police officers evidence of illegal procedures at Stapo Zurich cultivated since decades! [Emphasizes in quotes by SSI]
«... I need hollow point ammunition!»
Raid: Punitive expedition for
«photographing» and «filming» officers
House search without search warrant and confiscations not only
of concearned negative film and videotape without statements were
acts of revenge of police – because of Anger and Soulless
supposably «taking pictures» and «secretly
filming»!
«At a closer look I realized someone taking pictures
of us. I told this my colleagues. Out of reasons of self protection
- we didn't surely know, if only pictures were taken or if we even
were threatened by a weapon at that point of time - we pushed open
the door.» (EP X. Y., ??.8.01, p. 2)
«Anger and Soulless were taking pictures of the turning
out officers during the whole operation. That's why we were forced
to take urgent steps whereupon we confiscated several items.»
(statement of Pb B. S., 15.9.00, p. 3)
Despite not
being illegal to take pictures of police officers on duty on
public ground or at your private home, concerned officers generally
confiscate films and negatives following «instructions from
the top» with the (nowhere legally anchored) explanation
to have to check whether «forbidden» (EP B. S., 29.8.01,
p. 5) or «illegal portraits» (EP S. H., 14.8.01,
p. 4) were taken. Countless examples give proof of regular threats and
partly massive physical violencewhile doing so. If confiscated
films provide documentary evidence of police brutality, they
frequently get «unfortunately» «destroyed by mistake»
(see a.o. incidents of 1. Mai und 19. August of this year).
Not only the raid at hand is giving proof of a police being eager
of using up a couple of films to get them analyzed by the
political police.

Wrongful
deprivation of personal liberty
While several officers searched through all rooms of the
house repeated times and items were confiscated, Soulless
and Anger were unlawfully and forcibly kept hold in the first floor.
«The two inhabitants were guarded by two city police officers.
[…] I can't tell with hundred percent guarantee, if the men were
bound, but I don't think so. They were depraved of their personal
liberty in so far as they were not allowed to move in
the house nor to make phonecalls.» (EP Y. Z., ??.8.01, p.
5)
Despite instructions about house searches and confiscations
only being lawful in the presence of the affected person, above described
procedure is an illegal procedure ordered and tolerated «from
the top» since decades – and also applied e.g. at the
BLUTGEIL-Raid 1993.
«No confiscations» and other excuses
«The two squatters repeatedly accused us of illegal acting,
not only the forced entry, but also the confiscations.»
(EP Q.R., ??.8.01, p. 4)

All rooms were «roughly
inspected» and «superficially looked through»
several times (Kapo-report 25.7.01, p. 7 a. 15) – in «first
and foremost» search for (and confiscation if found) «persons»
(EP X. Y., ??.8.01, p. 5, 15), and a.o. «weapons»
(report of Pb B. S., 15.9.00, p. 3), «BM [= ger. Betäubungsmittel,
egl. anaesthetics, i.e. drugs]» (EP Y. Z., ??.8.01, p. 2),
«piles of flyers» (EP B. S., 29.8.01, p. 4), «several
film props of the movie "Blutgeil"» (report of Pb
B. S., 15.9.00, p. 2), an «empty videocover» (EP
B. S., 29.8.01, p. 4), «suspicious items » aso.,
while also «drawers happened to get opened and their content
superficially looked through». But at least in the living
room and the adjoining office room «nothing got broken up and
searched throughly» (EP B. S., 29.8.01, p. 4).
Nevertheless «no actual house search» nor «confiscations»
were ordered, carried out or tolerated according to explanations of
responsible superiors. That's also the reason why there was no need
for a statement of confiscated items (EP S. H., 14.8.01, p. 5).
Of the items confiscated without receipt, the unit's commander
Cpl S. H. claimed only having noticed the Videotape with allegedly
«illegal portraits of police officers» that he took himself,
getting «knowledge of further confiscations later, after
the end of the mission back at the police station» (EP S. H.,
14.8.01, p. 4f.). Nevertheless the whole lot of confiscated items were
forwarded to the political police.
Their responsible Chief Fw mbA Erwin Zünd, ordering
and coordinating the mission, also denies having ordered
a raid and confiscations. But afterwards he personally ordered Cpl
S. H. to «hand out all confiscated items» «to
investigate, if they connect to a criminal offence»
(report E. Zünd 9.5.01, p. 2).
Police even claims of confiscation with consent of the inhabitants!!
(EP B. S., 29.8.01, p. 4) And to top it all claiming the «cleaning
staff at the police station» mistook the bag bursting with
«confiscated» items for garbage and disposed
it by mistake. (EP B. S., 29.8.01, p. 3)
No interrogation
of superiors and other «coincidences»
Also proven wrong is the repeated claim of E. Zünd,
Chief of political police, that we forcibly refused the
workers access to the house, his reason for the massive, but
necessary and justified police action (see Kapo-report of 25.7.01,
p. 13). Nevertheless responsible chief Zünd was left aside in
the investigations. Coincidence?
At the same time an involved officer Pb B. S., who carried out most
of the confiscations before the very eyes of his superior Cpl
S. H. (but «without my knowledge» and «on his own»,
see EP S. H., 14.8.01, p. 4) was not reported to the investigating
authorities (see letter Kapo to J. Zingg, Chief legal department
Stapo, 31.7.01; reply 13.8.01: «no further acting officers known»,
see also report Kapo 25.7.01, p. 10). Coincidence?
