The way in which the law has now been changed means, in effect, that not only a private person, but even police officials may use force to effect the arrest only if that force is deemed necessary.

This change in the law is significant as it places restrictions on the use of force by police officials during arrests. It emphasizes the importance of using force only when absolutely necessary and as a last resort. This change aims to protect individuals from unnecessary harm and ensure that arrests are carried out in a fair and just manner. It also holds police officials accountable for their actions and requires them to justify their use of force in each situation. Overall, this change in the law promotes transparency, accountability, and respect for human rights in the enforcement of the law.

According to the amended law, only private individuals may use force to effect an arrest, and only if that force is deemed necessary.
