A British police officer is under criminal investigation over an incident at Manchester Airport in which a suspect was kicked and stamped on during an arrest, the police watchdog says.
“We can confirm we are conducting a criminal investigation into the use of force during events which took place on 23 July at Manchester Airport. We are arranging to interview a police constable under criminal caution as soon as possible,” Regional Director Catherine Bates of the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) said in a statement on Friday.
