My recent video presents a critical analysis of the Manchester Airport incident, examining the fine line between police brutality and justified force. By examining the Manchester Airport incident and other global examples, this video aims to spark a nuanced discussion on the complexities of policing and the need for balanced approaches that prioritize human rights while ensuring public safety. The analysis is grounded in the United Nations Basic Principles on the Use of Force and Firearms (UNBPFF), the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). The video delves into the framework of P.L.A.N+P (Proportionality, Legality, Accountability, and Necessity + Precaution), providing a comprehensive understanding of the principles guiding police conduct. Additionally, it highlights Pakistan's commitments to international treaties, conventions, and covenants, underscoring the country's obligations to uphold human rights standards. https://lnkd.in/dFWzmEVa
