Nowak murder: police accused of ‘anti-white bias’ five times more likely to stop black people

Hampshire force whose officers responded to the murder of 18-year-old has a higher than average racial disparity

The police force accused of anti-white racism after officers’ response to the murder of Henry Nowak is over five times more likely to subject black people to a stop and search than white people, according to the latest figures.

The racial disparity in the Hampshire force is higher than the average for England and Wales, and has worsened in recent years.
