Abderrahim Fakir killed in Bologna, stopped on the ground by the police and shouts: Help, enough! The video

A amateur video captures the final moments of Abderrahim Fakir, a 43-year-old Moroccan man who died during a police stop in Bologna on July 19. The footage shows two officers restraining him face-down while attempting to handcuff him, with a third person helping to hold his legs. Despite the presence of bystanders and emergency responders, no immediate intervention occurs. Fakir is heard screaming 'Help, enough!' before losing consciousness and later dying from what appears to be a cardiac arrest during the restraint. His sister expressed anger and grief, accusing the police of killing her brother after he was handcuffed and allegedly assaulted. Local residents reported hearing his cries and contacting authorities.

Bias read (Progressive): While the headline suggests a personal tragedy involving a man who may have been connected to a political figure or event (given the reference to Bologna and the emotional tone), the content provided does not clarify this connection.
