A jury is discharged in the retrial of two brothers accused of assaulting a police officer at Manchester Airport. Mohammed Fahir Amaaz, 21, and Muhammad Amaad, 26, both deny assaulting PC Zachary Marsden. During the retrial, the case is presented to a jury but, despite deliberations, the jury does not reach verdicts on the charges. As a result, the jury is formally discharged. Both defendants continue to deny wrongdoing, and the outcome means no verdict is recorded at this stage. The reporting describes the jury’s discharge following failed deliberations rather than any finding on the merits of the allegations. Further steps, including whether there will be another trial, are not detailed in the provided accounts. The case remains ongoing in the sense that the retrial concludes without a verdict, and the brothers are not convicted based on this jury’s inability to reach a decision.
