I don't think your take of the boss being willing to bust a not guilty guy - I didn't get any sense of that, my impression was he wanted to stick to the law, uphold it, no matter what his or the policeman's personal beliefs were.
I also think the choice of the crime was not too important, as long as it was trivial enough to spur the internal conflict - as this one did. In other words, the director was not after changing drug laws or even their evaluation.
I think the stretch you are making is from the boss simply applying the existing laws with no emotions attached, to the one who does what the old communist guard used to do... their ways are best summarized in a famous quote by Stalin's chief prosecutor Vyshinsky - he stated that the modern society should judge its members not according to the law, but following their conscience.
Be it as it may, law enforcement bending the laws according to their convictions is the surest recipe for lawlessness and abuse. In that sense the boss with his cooler head prevailed and a lesson learned. As far as I recall, the boss does not let his personal feelings on the petty crime known... as it should be.
