Police Officer Filmed Kicking Tasered Man's Head at Manchester Airport Terminal 2
Jul 24, 2024, 07:03 PM
A major incident occurred at Manchester Airport's Terminal 2, where a police officer was filmed kicking and stamping on a man's head during an arrest. The incident, which involved the arrest of four men, led to three officers being hospitalized, including a female officer who suffered a broken nose. The man, who was reportedly tasered and appeared compliant, was part of a group of Muslim men. The video of the incident has sparked widespread outrage and protests, particularly from the Muslim community. Greater Manchester Police have removed the officer from frontline duties and have referred the case to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) for a full investigation. The incident has raised significant concerns about police brutality and the use of excessive force, with calls for more context to be provided.
