Four men remain on police bail following an an incident at Manchester Airport during which two officers are alleged to have assaulted a teenager.
Greater Manchester Police today confirmed the force has sent a file to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) in relation to the ugly scenes at the hub last month.
The force says it continues to investigate "a series of alleged criminal offences" and three officers were injured. One of the two brothers involved, 19-year-old Mohammed Fahir, has a cyst on his brain, the family's former lawyer told the media in July.
Akhmed Yakoob, who is no longer representing the family from Rochdale, Greater Manchester, also claimed Mr Fahir's mother sustained a black eye in the fracas.
Greater Manchester Police confirmed four men remain on police bail - and said none of these are officers. It has stated, though, a separate investigation into the officers’ actions, by the Independent Office for Police Conduct, remains ongoing.
A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Police said: "We have submitted a comprehensive file of evidence to the Crown Prosecution Service for advice as part of an investigation into a series of alleged criminal offences which saw three police officers injured at Manchester Airport in July.
"GMP Major Incident Team investigators, led by a highly experienced Senior Investigating Officer, have been thoroughly investigating the incident.
"Four men remain on police bail. A separate and independent investigation into our officers’ actions, by the Independent Office for Police Conduct, remains ongoing."
The update comes days after the same force was plunged into more controversy as alarming footage showed five police officers appear to "kick and punch" a 16-year-old boy during an arrest in the Stockport area.
The youngster's mother has described the approach as "a brutal attack" and says she had to take her son to A&E for medics to address facial injuries. Police say items, including a knife, were seized.
The Professional Standards Directorate is now reviewing video of this incident, which happened on Wednesday August 7. The force says a knife, balaclava and e-bike were seized, and the driver will be questioned for "failing to stop".
