Clashes at protest for Henry Nowak

Nowak was stabbed to death in 2025, and police bodycam footage was released showing officers handcuffing him while suffering from stab wounds after his killer falsely alleged a racist attack.

Vickrum Digwa was sentenced to 21 years in jail for the murder, and an investigation is underway to examine the police officers' actions.

Nowak's family has pleaded for people not to use the 18-year-old's death to create division.
