Police officers who handcuffed dying student felt 'controlled and pressured' during diversity trainingPolice officers who handcuffed dying student felt 'controlled and pressured' during diversity trainingA survey of police officers and staff who underwent mandatory diversity training has revealed that one in seven participants felt 'controlled and pressured' to adopt certain ideas during the teaching. The training, which was part of the 'Inclusion Matters' course, was compulsory for over 6,000 officers and staff in the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary. The survey was conducted by the University of Reading and revealed that 16% of participants felt 'controlled and pressured' to adopt certain ideas, while 14% thought 'mistakes would have been held against me'. The results come as the police watchdog faces pressure to investigate the officers who handcuffed a dying student in Southampton last December. The student, Henry Nowak, was stabbed by a 23-year-old man who falsely claimed he had been racially abused and attacked. The case has prompted accusations that police equality guidance influenced the disparity in how Henry and his killer were initially treated.
