Newly released footage of the night of Henry Nowak’s murder by Vickrum Digwa confirms the police never handcuffed the killer, with the arresting officer telling Digwa “I know” when he falsely alleged he had been “racistly attacked.”

❓ WHAT HAPPENED: New bodycam footage released to the public has revealed more of the aftermath of white teenager Henry Nowak’s fatal stabbing by Sikh murderer Vickrum Digwa in December 2025, confirming that police treated the two very differently. Digwa, who falsely claimed he had been racially attacked, was not handcuffed when he was arrested for attempted murder, with the sympathetic-sounding arresting officer agreeing, “I know,” as Digwa falsely claimed that he had been “racistly [sic] attacked.” In contrast, police refused to believe Nowak had been stabbed when he told them he needed an ambulance, believed the Digwas’ false allegations of racism without question, and roughly arrested the teenager. He lost consciousness and died seemingly within moments of being pinned down and handcuffed. 📺 DETAIL: Digwa accused Nowak of making racist remarks and fabricated a story about the British-Polish finance student attacking him. He also repeatedly alleged that Nowak was drunk, which was proven to be false in court. Despite being arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, Digwa was not restrained, while Nowak, despite repeatedly stating that he had been stabbed, was handcuffed and pinned to the ground. Officers took over eight minutes to discover Nowak’s fatal chest wound as they administered CPR. 💬 KEY QUOTE: “I am sure that Henry had said nothing racist. You are the only person to make that claim and it is completely at odds with his previous character.” – Judge William Mousley KC, sentencing Digwa to a minimum of 21 years in prison 🎯 IMPACT: The footage has reignited debates over “two-tier policing,” with critics suggesting that anti-white ideology promoted in police guidance influenced officers to treat an unsubstantiated allegation of racism more seriously than a teenager pleading that he had been stabbed and needed an ambulance. Outcry from Reform UK party leader Nigel Farage and much of the public over the case has prompted calls for a review of current policing guidelines that state explicitly that ethnic groups must be treated differently in order to achieve “equality of policing outcomes.” |
