Supreme Court dismisses appeal regarding police arrest authority and criminal liability for refusing to enter a police car.

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal against a lower court decision upholding the police officer's authority to arrest the appellant and convicting him for the crime of resisting arrest. The appellant had refused to obey the officer's command to enter a police vehicle and was subsequently detained and prosecuted. The court affirmed that the officer acted within his legal powers and that the appellant's actions constituted a punishable offense under Finnish law.
