Levi was coming to the end of his 12 hour shift when he was aggressively approached by officers as he set off from Morley’s to deliver his orders, detained without a specific reason and intimidated repeatedly. This happened on Deptford High Street on Saturday 19th June 2021
He was taken to Lewisham Police Station without justification, kept overnight with no phone call to let his Mum or any other family know of his whereabouts and kept in a cell for over 16 hours, during which time he had to routinely beg for water...
Which was only granted after several hours of being in the cell. He was accused of assaulting a police officer (as you can see in the video) but released with no further action and no explanation as to why he was detained and arrested.
Levi was assaulted by during the ordeal (there is more footage to come) by these inadequate, irresponsible & racially biased TSG officers with bruises on his face and cuts/bruises to wrists from handcuffs. He was treated inhumanely & we will be taking this to the fullest extreme.
WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH! You won’t get away with treating any of us like this anymore. With all the lip service coming from the Met without any change in approaches to policing the Black British community, it’s truly down to US the public, to force change and protect ourselves...
From overzealous police that terrorise us in our own communities. I need us all to come together now... it’s down to us my people
