The court heard police were called after the boy was reported to have been aggressive at his home address and acted violently towards a mental health worker.
Prosecutor Lyndon Harris said PC Gonen "in particular disliked" the boy and "had formed the impression that he was wasting their time by faking some form of mental illness."
The prosecution alleges the search was unlawful as the boy had not been arrested and the officers had no powers to search him under Section 32 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act.
PC Price can be heard on body-worn footage, shown in court, telling PC Gonen: "Just to let you know he's been spitting in my face."
