A 41-year-old man who was tasered 13 times by police says he was never given the option of pressing charges against the officers.

Western Australia's Corruption and Crime Commission released security vision of two officers tasering Kevin Spratt at the East Perth watch house in 2008 while nine other officers watched.

Police say Mr Spratt chose not to press charges and so the officers involved were fined $750 and $1,200 respectively.

Mr Spratt says he never directed police not to charge the officers.

"I was under the understanding if you are a troublemaker you would not get parole. I was in prison, I was terrified of the police and didn't want to go against anything that they said," he said.

"I have been tortured in police custody and the police are trying to put a further injustice upon me by blaming me for the failure to prosecute the officers."

He says he wrote a letter to police apologising for his behaviour.

"Nowhere in the letter did I say I did not want the police who tortured me prosecuted," he said.
