Demonstrators in Seattle have demanded the resignation of two police officers over the death of a student from India and callous remarks by one of them
Seattle Police Pedestrian Killed
At the demonstration on Thursday, 5-year-old Layla Allibhai sat atop father Mo Allibhai’s shoulders while holding a sign saying: “I have unlimited value. So did Jaahnavi.”"I think this has galvanized people because it's so blatant and disrespectful to put a value on a human's life at $11,000," Patricia Hunter, co-chair of the, said in an interview Friday.
“It sullens the profession of law enforcement, the reputation of all Seattle Police officers and paints Seattle in a terrible light,” the union said. “We feel deep sorrow and grief for the family of Jaahnavi Kandula as this video has revictimized them in an already tragic situation as they continue to mourn her death. We are truly sorry.”
