Officer Has Had Enough Reports Colleague To Police

HANSTHOLM: The waves are still high in the case of the rescuer Jonas Kjær from Hanstholm, who at the end of November last year received a speeding ticket on his way to a rescue operation in the North Sea off Hanstholm René Borg, who himself has been a police assistant since 2003, has just reported the police assistant from the Central and West Jutland Police who stopped Jonas Kjær on 29 November for driving 86 km/h in the city zone in a situation where the Coast Guard's rescue station in Hanstholm had turned on all red lights in the wake of a "man overboard" alert in the North Sea.

The trouble with fines meant that the rescue boat CB Claudi was delayed for 6-7 minutes before it could put out to sea and participate in the rescue operation, where the missing sailor was never found - It is completely crazy that it should take so long.

The officer may have been within his rights to issue a fine, but he could have taken a photo of the rescuer's license and his car It had taken 20 seconds.

There may be human lives that have been lost as a result of his behavior, which delayed the rescuers, says René Borg to Nordjyske He is aware that it will be alarming for many that an officer reports a colleague in this way.

- The police is a special place to be This is not where you speak.

Then you shut up if you still want to be active and employed This could easily lead to employment consequences, says René Borg.

He states that with his report he wants the episode to have consequences for the traffic officer - just as he wants to get a basic assessment of, whether the police will in the future disregard common sense and conduct by opposing rescuers who are under the command of the Armed Forces, as was the case in Hanstholm In the report, René Borg writes that he wants to find out whether the police assistant during the incident in Hanstholm acted illegally or in a reprehensible manner.

It has also occurred to him that Chief Police Inspector Claus Hilborg from the Central and West Jutland Police has stated to the media that such police business "will be settled as quickly as possible And we have no indications that it has dragged on unnecessarily! " "This is not seen to be in accordance with the content of the many published articles, as both Jonas Kjær and the head of the rescue station, Morten Olsen, do not seem to agree with that argument", writes René Borg in his review.

13 In February, Claus Hilborg stated to DR Nordjylland that "when the police became aware of what the case was about, the question is whether action was taken quickly enough".

"This specific statement casts serious doubt on the officer's behavior as well as dispositions at the crime scene .

and whether there is an acknowledgment of guilt regarding the police's behavior in connection with this incident," the report states.

René Borg had initially sent it to the Independent Police Complaints Authority (DUP), but on Friday he was informed that, after a concrete assessment of the case, the DUP has referred it for further processing by the Central and West Jutland Police themselves - I had sent it to the DUP, so that the Central and West Jutland Police would not have to sit and process a complaint against themselves.

But they are coming to that now My hopes for the treatment are not too high, but miracles still happen, says René Borg.

He is not alone in shaking his head at the handling of the fine mess in Hanstholm For North Jutland, Venstre's judicial rapporteur, the North Jutland elected lawyer Preben Bang Henriksen, said earlier this month that there should be room for exceptions from the traffic law in similar situations.

- We are so dependent on help arriving and on volunteers willing to take on the tasks We must create room for an individual assessment of these fine cases.

When a fine comes through the door, the rescuer or his superior must take it to the police with the necessary documentation that it was an emergency and that the rescuer was not just there to collect rolls And with the necessary documentation, the fine should be remitted on the basis that says Preben Bang Henriksen, who will discuss the case with Minister of Justice Peter Hummelgaard (S).

On Friday, North Jutland asked the Central and West Jutland Police if they can confirm that the DUP has forwarded the report from René Borg to them - We can neither confirm nor deny whether we process a complaint about an employee, because we do not comment on possible personnel matters, Central and West Jutland Police inform Nordjyske.
