The 32-year-old also swore at the CNB personnel and put up a violent struggle, injuring four officers in total before he was restrained.

The accused was HIV-positive at the time.


The officer who was scratched underwent six HIV tests and has been declared HIV-negative.

The former lawyer was jailed one year and 22 weeks after he pleaded guilty to drug consumption, possession of drug apparatus and voluntarily causing hurt to deter a public servant from his duty.

Another three similar charges were taken into consideration.

Any rumours about this guy? Sounds like he hit rock bottom doing pro bono work..
