The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) says it will not pursue a third trial following two separate jury failures to reach verdicts in the case involving brothers Mohammed Fahir Amaaz and Muhammad Amaad. The charges relate to an alleged assault connected to events at Manchester Airport involving police officer PC Zachary Marsden. According to the reports, one of the brothers faced assault charges and the case did not reach a conclusion at trial because the juries were unable to agree. Following the second hung jury, the CPS announces it will not seek another trial, effectively ending the proceedings in its current form. Both outlets also reference comments attributed to the Greater Manchester Police (GMP) chief, who is described as “standing with officers,” in the context of the outcome. The reports do not indicate a conviction or sentence, and the case ends without a verdict after the two trials.
