BBC ^ | July 30 | BBC

Posted on 07/30/2025 8:22:32 AM PDT by RandFan

A man has been found guilty of attacking two female police officers during a large violent disturbance at Manchester Airport.

Mohammed Fahir Amaaz, 20, was charged with assaulting the Greater Manchester Police officers during the fracas on 23 July last year, with a video of the incident being widely shared on social media.

Following a three-week trail at Liverpool Crown Court, Amaaz was convicted of assaulting PC Lydia Ward, causing actual bodily harm, and the assault of emergency worker PC Ellie Cook.

The jury was unable to reach verdicts on allegations that Amaaz and his brother, Muhammad Ahmed, 26, assaulted PC Zachary Marsden causing actual bodily harm.

Anyone remember the video of this it rings a bell...

It's from last year. Trials take a long time!

Footage released earlier this month :

A police officer who was punched in the face as she tried to arrest a suspect at Manchester airport has said “everything went black” as she fell to the floor.

PC Lydia Ward was one of three officers sent to deal with an incident involving two brothers, Mohammed Fahir Amaaz, 20, and Muhammad Amaad, 26, at the Terminal 2 building at the airport in July last year.

Ward, PC Zachary Marsden and PC Ellie Cook approached Amaaz after a report that a male fitting his description had headbutted a customer at Starbucks cafe in T2 arrivals.

With a name like that, I am surprised he went to trial at all.

What kind of jury can’t reach a verdict after seeing a video of it?

He should have been found Not Guilty By Reason of Islam.

After all they were women and they weren’t Muslims.

As soon as I saw “Man” in the headline, I had to take a look. As I suspected, Muslim.

I’m sure they’ll be sentenced to supervising pre teen girls in Rotterdam as part of their community service.

Let me guess: The British press refer to them as “British Men” - I couldn’t read the rest of the article, it is behind a pay wall.

They were apparently convicted of assault and causing great bodily harm.

Were they jailed? Or let free? Were the police accused of racism?

Curious he attacked 2 female officers. From what I remember the police got the blame for being aggressive when they apprehended him and there was a video circulated which didn’t show the full story.

The fact that they were women is irrelevant to the article except to point out they are not capable of doing the job.

It took almost a year(?) to even CHARGE them after the local Muslims INTIMIDATED the police to let them go after the incident.

In the mean time Tommy Robinson was thrown in prison for publishing a videos the State didn’t approve of.

Saw a video of two female cops trying arrest an average looking guy.
He was basically man handling both, while laughing.
