112. Man ADMITTED to PSYCHIATRY after a False Call

112 is the target of many people without much brains who make fake calls just to have fun, but one of them got exactly what he deserved after abusing the emergency service in Romania. More precisely, a man called the 112 emergency service to report the fact that he had killed a woman, whom he then threw into a well, and the Romanian Police "rewarded" him as befits, admitting him in a psychiatric hospital.

The Romanian police already had that man on file for other false calls made to the 112 emergency service, for which he was fined in the past, but now he finally decided to do something good. The man was drunk when he called 112 and reported that he killed a woman, whom he then threw into a well, and as a reward he spent at least one night at the psychiatric hospital in Cluj-Napoca .

The reality is that people who initiate false calls to the 112 emergency service, and report such serious crimes, should anyway talk to a psychiatrist, not a psychologist, to find out the reasons for such decisions. Of course, the penalties for false calls made to 112 should be tightened even more, apart from the increase in fines, which are not applied anyway, the interventions made by the authorities should also be paid for.

"On the night of Tuesday to Wednesday, a 53-year-old man from Câmpia Turzii reported by calling 112 that he had killed a woman. Following the checks, it was established that the call is a fake one. The man was ordered to be admitted to Psychiatry, in Cluj-Napoca. This time he called to announce that he had killed a woman and thrown her into a well. We had to investigate and treat such a call seriously, even if it later turned out to be a false one."

These false calls made to 112 are much more dangerous than many imagine, and not only because they put policemen, gendarmes, firefighters on the roads. All the operators who answer these fake calls become, over time, immune to people's real problems, and they don't react with the same seriousness and promptness when they have a real problem in front of them, which is extremely dangerous.

112 could be on the "right path" if the measure regarding the purchase of prepaid cards only with the bulletin will have the desired effect by the authorities, but we will find that out only in a year or so.
