Brothers 'assaulted' police officers during airport arrest

Mohammed Fahir Amaaz, 20, and Muhammad Amaad, 26, are said to have struck out after police were called to respond to an earlier incident at the Starbucks cafe in the Terminal 2 building on 23 July 2024.

Mr Amaaz delivered a headbutt to the face of a man who had been on the same flight as his mother and punched him during the altercation in Starbucks, Liverpool Crown Court heard.

Opening the prosecution case yesterday, Paul Greaney KC said officers who were already in the airport later traced the brothers to the terminal’s car park payment area.

Three officers, PC Zachary Marsden and PC Ellie Cook - both armed - and PC Lydia Ward, approached the defendants, he said.

Mr Greaney went on: “The officers attempted to move Mohammed Fahir Amaaz away from a payment machine in order to arrest him, but he resisted, and his brother Muhammad Amaad intervened.

'I don't necessarily need sex – just emotional proximity'

If you had shown me a snapshot of our relationship now, back when we first met, I would not have imagined in a million years that this is how we would be living. But I am trying not to regret anything. We have two lovely children and they are happy, and that is worth a lot. I try to concentrate on how rewarding and enriching my relationship with them is - rather than on my marriage.
