Greater Manchester Police has released various statements in respect of the incident at Manchester Airport where an officer was seen kicking and stamping on a suspect’s head whilst making an arrest.

Several people have been arrested, and this video discusses the use of force in self-defence and in making an arrest.

Please understand that I cannot speculate as to whether the use of force was justified and reasonable because we do not know all of the circumstances. It is highly likely that disciplinary and/or criminal proceedings will follow, and I cannot risk jeopardising any such proceedings by speculating as to whether this was reasonable.

For example, if a jury were ultimately asked to hear the case, I would not like them to be tainted by any views expressed here.

What I can do, however, is discuss the law generally for the use of force as it applies for self-defence in criminal and civil cases.
