IOPC calls for witnesses after custody death

THE Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) is appealing for witnesses as part of its investigation into the death of a man in police custody last weekend.

Andre Moura, 30, died after Greater Manchester Police (GMP) responded to reports of a domestic incident at an address near Oldham on Friday night.

Officers restrained Mr Moura using CS spray while arresting him outside his address, before taking him to Ashton-under-Lyne police station, where he was found to be “unresponsive.”
