Article excerpt

The chief constable of a police force apologized to the family of Henry Nowak after footage emerged showing him being handcuffed and arrested, despite being a murder victim. Alexis Boon told the BBC the video was distressing, acknowledging the problematic nature of how officers treated Nowak. The case appears to involve a significant investigative failure, raising questions about how police identified and handled someone who turned out to be a victim rather than a suspect.
