The trial has concluded, the facts have been confirmed. As the prosecuting counsel put it, Digwa used his “trump card” by alleging he had been the victim of racist abuse when police officers arrived.
DEI has again proved lethal - literally lethal. Henry Nowak, like the victims of Valdo Kalocane, of Axel Rudakubana, of the rape gangs, was failed by a public sector that treats anti-racism as its supreme value.
