Police Footage Shows Henry Nowak's Killer Telling 'Wicked Lies' After Murder
Bodycam footage shows Digwa repeatedly giving false accounts as medics tried to save Henry Nowak, while police face scrutiny over the response.
- Newly released police body-worn footage exposes the "wicked lies" told by killer Vickrum Digwa on the night he murdered 18-year-old student Henry Nowak, with Digwa repeatedly claiming the victim was "obviously drunk" and had "racially attacked" him.
- Digwa told officers Henry "pushed my turban off my head" and "started grabbing my uncut hair," while his father, Moga Singh, claimed the student assaulted his son; Digwa denied any knowledge of the victim's injury when questioned.
- Police took eight minutes to locate Nowak's fatal wound despite the student repeatedly begging for help, while Hampshire police confirmed Digwa was "never handcuffed" during his four days in custody—a contrast the family described as "unbearable."
- Digwa was imprisoned for 23 years last month at Southampton Crown Court for murder, while the Independent Office for Police Conduct investigates whether any "act or omission by a police officer" caused or contributed to the victim's death.
- A jury inquest at Winchester Coroner's Court next year will examine whether police actions contributed to Nowak's death, as his father Mark Nowak stated the family wants to use their "heart-breaking story to make change for the better.
