Family at centre of Manchester Airport video are traumatised, MP says
The family at the centre of the Manchester Airport controversy are “traumatised”, their MP has said.
Paul Waugh, the Labour MP for Rochdale met the family after video footage appeared to show a man being kicked on the floor by a Greater Mancester Police officer in terminal two.
Mr Waugh told BBC Breakfast on Friday (26 July): “It’s clear from talking to them that they are traumatised. Lots of people saw that video clip and they are distressed by it.
“The police themselves said it was a distressing clip but just imagine if that was your brother or your son in that clip; you can imagine how distraught they are.”
Watchdog the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) is now investigating.
