The case sparked outrage and a fierce debate over the use of force by the police.

The incident resulted in PC Lydia Ward suffering a broken nose and PC Ellie Cook being assaulted.
A retrial jury has been discharged after it failed to reach verdicts in the case of two brothers accused of assaulting a police officer at Manchester Airport .
The incident erupted after Mohammed Fahir Amaaz, now 21, headbutted a Kuwaiti holidaymaker after accusing him of racially abusing his mother. The violence erupted as officers responded to reports of the assault, and PC Zachary Marsden, a firearms officer, kicked Amaaz in the head while he was prone. The case sparked outrage and a fierce debate over the use of force by the police.
The prosecution argued that PC Marsden and his team were 'plainly entitled' to arrest Amaaz for headbutting a holidaymaker earlier. The three-minute confrontation resulted in PC Lydia Ward suffering a broken nose and PC Ellie Cook being assaulted. The incident also appeared to show the brothers' mother being shoved by officers. The brothers, both from Rochdale, were convicted of assaulting PC Ward and PC Cook but not PC Marsden.
The case has led to calls for greater support from politicians and the public for rank and file officers
