Body Cam Footage Released in the Shocking Murder of Henry Nowak
The footage has intensified scrutiny of Hampshire Police after officers handcuffed Henry Nowak while he repeatedly said he had been stabbed.
- On Monday, Hampshire Police released bodycam footage showing 18-year-old student Henry Nowak repeatedly telling officers he had been stabbed before they handcuffed him; the video emerged after Vickrum Digwa's murder conviction.
- Digwa stabbed Nowak with a 21cm ceremonial knife on Belmont Road, Southampton, on December 3, 2025, then falsely claimed the victim had racially assaulted him; officers initially treated the bleeding student as a suspect rather than a victim.
- Temporary Deputy Chief Constable Robert France apologised, admitting officers were 'misled' by the killer's lies; bodycam footage captures an officer dismissing Nowak's pleas with, 'I don't think you have, mate,' before handcuffing him.
- Mark Nowak, the victim's father, condemned the police response as 'inhumane' and demanded a 'full, fearless and transparent' investigation; the Independent Office for Police Conduct is examining the force's decision-making during the initial response.
- The Prime Minister described the incident as an 'awful, shocking case,' supporting the IOPC investigation; Nowak's family has renewed calls for stronger action on knife crime, framing the tragedy as part of a national problem.
