Second police officer under investigation after Manchester airport incident

IOPC says it is investigating officer over alleged assault and potential gross misconduct relating to clash on 23 July

A second officer is under criminal investigation for assault after an incident at Manchester airport, the police watchdog has said.

Video footage that showed a police officer kicking and stamping on the head of Muhammed Fahir, 19, as he and his 25-year-old brother were restrained by officers led to protests in Rochdale and Manchester city centre after it emerged last month.
