this got me thinking how much authority do these security guards really have? I know they all look threatening in their uniforms but would they have any real legal authority to detain a person? I know here in Australia the security guards have no authority to detain a person unless making a citizens arrest...(even in the hospital where I work we would need to call the police as security have no powers)Would they be able to physically stop a person leaving the hospital? This is an interesting situation ( I hope the martial arts teacher got away) Seems like a violation of civil rights but then again it is Indonesia where things get done very differently......
