Bodycam footage, released with the consent of Henry's family, shows that as Henry shouts out that he has been stabbed, one officer responds: \"You’ve been stabbed? I don’t think you have, mate.\" The killer, Vickrum Digwa, had lied and claimed that Henry had racially attacked him. How did the police get their response wrong? The Home Secretary has called the footage \"disturbing and tragic\", and insisted that Henry's family deserve answers. Nigel Farage is claiming that the murder is proof we are \"living in a two-tier culture in this country where the rights and privileges of white people matter less than those of ethnic minorities.\" Andy Hughes, co-host of The Crime Agents, explains why that is nonsense. Later, Belarus's President in exile, Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, on how Lukashenko is running the country like a gulag - and why he must be stopped. The News Agents is a Global Production.
