An exclusively released unedited transcript has shed new light on the viral bodycam footage showing police officers wrongly subduing 18-year-old university student Henry Novak after he had been stabbed.
Novak was stabbed in Southampton in December 2025 by 23-year-old Vickrum Digwa, who told officers he had been the victim of a racially motivated attack. Police initially believed his account and proceeded to handcuff the wounded student, who later died at the scene.
