One of the 78 people arrested for a protest that blocked traffic on the Bay Bridge during the APEC summit in November has filed a lawsuit in federal court against the city of San Francisco for wrongful arrest.
In a federal complaint filed Tuesday, attorneys for Masoud Barukzai of Pleasanton , said the retired firefighter and medical device worker was on his way to San Francisco International Airport for work when he was stuck in the backup caused when a demonstration happened on the Eastern span of the Bay Bridge just before Treasure Island.His suit states that he did not commit any crime, was not part of the protest and was therefore, wrongfully arrested.
Tompkins told KTVU she was detained by police after she spoke up when she saw Barukzai and other drivers who got out of their vehicles being arrested. Both Tompkins and Barukzai were taken to San Francisco County jail. Tompkins was released and never charged, but Barukzai spent four hours in jail and was charged with unlawful assembly and failure to disperse.
