ACTIVISTS have demanded action on racist police violence after a Muslim man was left hospitalised in a brutal attack by a Greater Manchester officer.

Chants of “No justice, no peace, no racist police” echoed outside Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham’s office on Thursday evening.

Hundreds joined the Stand Up to Racism protest after Mohammad Fahir, 19, and his brother Amaad were kicked and attacked by a GMP officer at Manchester airport on Wednesday.
