Manchester Airport cops punch & kick man pinned to floor – weeks after officers cleared over previous arrest vid

MANCHESTER Airport cops have been filmed punching and kicking a man as he was pinned to the floor.

The video – taken at around 1pm on Sunday – has emerged just days after two officers were cleared over another brawl at the airport.

During the incident on July 23, two officers were reportedly punched and knocked to the ground while trying to restrain passenger Mohammed Fahir Amaaz, 19, who was also kicked in the head alongside his brother Muhammad Amaad, 25.

The two brothers have now been charged over the airport chaos this summer, but the two cops probed over the same incident will not face charges.

Yesterday’s footage shows an officer appearing to punch the man four times and kick him twice to the stomach area.

Authorities believe that the officers had been alerted to a situation involving an individual who was described as being disorderly and under the influence at a bus station near the airport, where he had been denied entry onto public transportation.

One officer arrived at the scene and is said to have attempted to arrest the man, before colleagues came in to assist.

A scuffle ensued, before the footage shows one cop holding the man’s head, a second pinning down his feet and a third kneeling on top of him.

The man was subsequently arrested on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly.

A spokesperson from the Greater Manchester Police stated, “We are in the process of investigating a video that has been circulating online. The footage depicts the apprehension of a man at the bus terminal of Manchester Airport that occurred yesterday afternoon.

“We understand the concerns around the use of force shown on the clip and our professional standards unit is assessing all available footage including the officers’ body worn cameras and CCTV.”

The footage was captured by a holidaymaker on a visit to the UK.

Two brothers charged over Manchester Airport brawl chaos that sparked protests after man ‘kicked in face’

It comes five months after shocking footage emerged from the same airport showing a fight in which two officers were punched to the ground.

Passenger Amaaz, 19, was kicked in the head as he and his brother Amaad, 25, were restrained, it was said.

The two brothers have since been charged over the incident.

Amaaz, now 20, is accused of two offences of causing actual bodily harm, one charge of assaulting an emergency worker and one charge of common assault.

Amaad, 25, is charged with causing actual bodily harm and will appear at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court alongside his brother on January 16.
