Student Henry Nowak repeatedly told police officers "I can't breathe" as he lay dying in handcuffs after being stabbed, bodycam footage shows. The 18-year-old Southampton student was handcuffed after killer Vickrum Digwa, 23, lied to police at the scene of the 2025 stabbing, claiming he had been the victim of a racist attack.

The authorities in Britain are investigating police officers who handcuffed a student, Henry Nowak, while he was dying, in a case that been increasingly politicized.

Bodycam footage has captured a man driving away from police while still handcuffed. John Robinson sped away from officers with his car doors still open after he was accused of driving a “potentially stolen vehicle”.

Hundreds of people have turned out for a huge protest outside Southampton Central Police Station over the police arrest of murder victim Henry Nowak.

Officers from Gwent Police pulled over John Robinson, 48, on November 30 last year after suspecting that the Mitsubishi Outlander he was driving was stolen.
