I don't think any of the cops involved will be charged, the CPS have said there was not enough evidence.
There was plenty of evidence that the two thugs attacked firstly a member of the public, and then the police who were called to sort it out.

I doubt there will be yet another retrial....British Justice....what a joke.

 THis whole thing stinks, if you ask me.

 Obviously no one knows who was on the jury, but if they were twice randomly selected, as they should be, it sounds like they were either biased ... or stupid.

 Thats another possibility.

When evidence is so clear, oth by unbiased witnesses and video, there should be no doubt of a guilty verdict; it's a farce.

The public will no doubt be outraged at the sheer unfairness of this, especially if there is no another retrial, but imagine how the police feel.

 I feel shit is going to hit the fan no matter…the general public (already incensed with the handling of it all) if no new trial and/or a lenient sentence or the Pakistani/muslim community who’ll no doubt scream racism/Islamophobia if a new trial/sentenced.

” Sean Beech sentenced on 22nd November 2024 to four and a half years for breaking a police officer’s nose. It is the longest prison sentence to date for anyone convicted of being involved in the violent disorder in Southport. From charging to sentence was about two and a half months.” https://x.com/HJB_News__/status/2057761789450887437

 The law should be above pandering to public opinion. But this case has been a joke from the start.

Muslims recording the 'police brutality' and putting it online. The near riots and protests after the two thugs were taken into police custody, then released almost immediately. Then they had their ridiculous lawyer claiming the police should be charged with attempted assassination.

All this happened almost two years ago, and still it drags on, costing the tax payer millions.

Two brothers have been cleared of assaulting an armed police officer at Manchester Airport after two juries failed to reach verdicts in their case.

Prosecutors in the case announced they would not seek a third trial after a second jury was left deadlocked last week. Mohammed Fahir Amaaz, 21, and Muhammad Amaad, 26, were both on trial accused of assaulting PC Zachary Marsden. They denied the single charge and claimed they were acting in self-defence.

 

Amaaz was previously convicted of assaulting two police officers and a member of the public in the same incident, jurors heard in the recent trial, which ended on May 20. He now faces sentencing for those charges.

 Younger thug has been on remand in custody (so they say) for a few months and will be sentenced next month. He will apparently be given a jail sentence.

My guess is it will be short, and after the custodial time is taken off, I bet he will serve weeks not years.

Older thug walks free, even though it's plain o see he attacked the cop. 

So the female cop who had her nose broken will see an iota of justice. The other cops.....zilch. A great message to send out is that the police can be attacked and the attackers will probably get off, IF they pass certain criteria.

Was this family connection(s) made known at the time / relative cop giving a glowing character reference in court? if so apologies as I obviously missed it…

The policeman brother of the men filmed fighting with officers at Manchester Airport has been suspended following a probe into alleged racism, it can now be revealed.

Since the violent arrest of Mohammed Fahir Amaaz and Muhammad Amaad in July 2024, their supporters have emphasised their family's strong links to Greater Manchester Police.

Six relatives are currently serving with the force, while their uncle Nazir Hussain was a respected officer over three decades.

But while jurors in two trials heard a glowing character reference from the siblings' elder brother, Mohammed Abid, they were not told that he faces disciplinary proceedings after a racism allegation.

He was one of eight officers suspended the same month that the violence erupted at Manchester Airport over complaints about a colleague's accent allegedly being 'mocked'.

None has been named publicly, and the solicitor who represented the brothers at their trial claimed his identity had been leaked as part of a 'desperate' attempt to 'smear' his clients.

'Sadly it comes as no surprise that Greater Manchester Police should now turn its attention to my clients' brother,' Aamer Anwar said.

Mr Abid's suspension followed allegations that an officer in the Bury district had been subjected to racist remarks by a colleague in December 2023. Mr Abid is understood to deny using racist language.

A glowing character reference for youngest brother Amaaz from his police officer brother was read out during their trial.

In it, PC Abid praised his 'respectful, gentle and soft-spoken nature' and 'dedication to academic roles'.

'He's always looked up to me as a role model,' he added. “.  https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-15811497/Policeman-brother-Manchester-Airport-attackers-suspended-racism-probe.html
