Sec. 234. Conduct towards offenders and prisoners.
When it becomes necessary to take a person into custody, he
shall do so in as easy and quiet manner as possible using only
sufficient force to secure the prisoner, and in no instance shall
he strike a prisoner, except in self-defense; he shall see that the
prisoner is properly dealt with and cared for until he is taken
from his custody according to law, and any unnecessary deprivations
and abuses of prisoners will meet with reproof and punishment.
The officer who may be in charge of the station house
will see to it that prisoners while there receive proper care and
should a prisoner need medical attention he shall immediately
call a doctor.
