Good morning. When Henry Nowak’s father, Mark, stood on the court steps after his son’s murderer had been sentenced to life in prison, he was clear: “We want to use Henry’s heartbreaking story to make change for the better. We do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred, or tension. We want his story to make our streets safer for everyone”.
Henry’s killer, Vickrum Digwa, 23, used a dagger to fatally stab the 18-year-old university student last December, falsely claiming Digwa had been racially abused and attacked by his victim. Harrowing body-camera footage released by Hampshire police shows Henry being handcuffed despite repeatedly telling police officers he could not breathe and had been stabbed. “I don’t think you have mate,” one officer replied.
