Greater Manchester Police bosses say officers captured on video restraining a suspected drug-dealer during his arrest acted appropriately - and that no complaints had been made following the circulation of the clip on social media.
In the footage, which was shared with the Manchester Evening News, officers appeared to pin a man to the ground as he was detained in Oldham in December. One officer appeared to hit the man in the head several times.
People could be heard shouting at the officers in the clip, with one saying: "You can't hit him like that, I'm recording." The video was shared on several Facebook pages.
