EXCLUSIVE: Reform UK Prepares To Bring Private Prosecution Against Manchester Airport Men

EXCLUSIVE: Reform UK is preparing to bring a private prosecution against two men involved in the Manchester Airport incident in July. A mobile phone video clip of an officer kicking and appearing to stamp on the head of Fahir Amaaz, 19, went viral on social media as he and his brother, Muhammed Amaad, 25, were restrained by officers. Further footage, obtained by the Manchester Evening News, emerged days later which showed the immediate lead-up to the incident on July 23, including when two female police officers were hit to the ground before Mr Amaaz was incapacitated with a Taser. The disturbance was passed to the Crown Prosecution Service in August. The IOPC is also probing the actions of the officers involved in the airport disturbance. One officer is under criminal investigation for assault in connection with the arrests of the brothers. He has also been suspended by GMP. A second officer has been advised they are also under criminal investigation for assault over an incident shortly after two other men were arrested.
