This was conveyed by forensic psychology expert, Reza Indragiri Amriel, who said that victims of wrongful arrest usually receive compensation.
"Victims of wrongful arrest receive compensation. This is the practice in many countries," said Reza in a written statement Monday, July 8 2024.
However, police institutions usually carry out amicable settlements by providing compensation rather than taking legal processes such as pre-trial hearings.
"Instead of using legal mechanisms that are coercive and even humiliating, police institutions usually choose amicable solutions to provide compensation," he said.
