Supermarket security guards have no right to punish. In fact, the friend of the landlord should have chosen to call the police at that time. Because the towel is worth 7.9 yuan, the amount is too small, even the punishment in the Regulations on Public Security Punishment is not enough.
I'm tired of sticking to the party The landlord can look at the link below for himself. Articles 16 and 23.

If the landlord's friend had gone to the police station at that time, it would have been criticism and education. Nothing else!
Now the supermarket security guard is holding a chicken feather as an arrow, hehe, well, since there are greedy people, there will be corresponding punishment.
You can accompany your friends to the supermarket, ask the security guard to pay the rest of the money, and prepare the telephone recording.
Remember: the recording must include the total amount of compensation, the basis for asking your friend for compensation, and finally ask the supermarket security guard for a receipt, so that he can tell the reason for not giving it. You can ask the security guard from time to time, why not go to the police station and let the supermarket security department handle it? Hehe, finally, ask whether this punishment is decided by the supermarket or by the security guards themselves.
After the recording is over and the money is delivered, you can ask the security guard whether to refund the money in full or call the police now. Now they are suspected of extortion.
If the other party obediently pays back the money and promises in writing that the matter is not handled properly, apologize. It's done. Or call the police and go to the police station to solve it. See how to deal with it through the official.
The landlord should remember two things. First of all, stand up for others and have courage. As long as the security guard takes your friend's so-called compensation, it can't be cleaned. Their responsibility is much heavier than that 7.9 towel.
Secondly, don't try to let your friend solve it by himself, because he did something wrong, so he is afraid. Someone must stand up for him. Otherwise, it's all on paper Let's pay the balance honestly and understand.
