Seven months after the death of Henry Nowak, the two police officers who handcuffed the 18-year-old as he lay fatally wounded are under investigation for potential gross misconduct.

The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) said it is examining whether the officers breached professional standards relating to the use of force, duty of care, and authority, respect and courtesy.
