Video of Moroccan man dying while pinned down by police sparks anger in Italy

Rome — The death of a 42-year-old man as he was being detained by Italian police in Bologna during an encounter captured on video has sparked public outrage and a formal investigation, with calls for renewed scrutiny of police tactics.The man, identified by Italian media as Moroccan-born Abderrahim Fakir, died Sunday after officers attempted to place him under arrest in the northern Italian city.According to the Bologna police, officers responded to reports of a man behaving erratically and damaging parked cars. In a statement, the police said Fakir resisted the two officers, who sprayed him with pepper spray in an effort to subdue him. A screengrab from amateur video shared widely on social media, including by the family of Moroccan-born Italian Abderrahim Fakir, shows him being held down by two police officers and a third man on July 19, 2026, in Bologna, Italy, during an attempted arrest that ended with his death. Social media Videos recorded by witnesses from nearby apartment buildings, shared widely on Italian television and social media, show the two officers and a third man restraining Fakir on the ground, face down, after he was handcuffed.Fakir can be heard repeatedly calling out for help and pleading for the officers to stop before he becomes unresponsive. Members of an emergency medical team are also visible, standing back during the struggle.After Fakir falls silent, the officers finish binding his ankles and the medical personnel turn his body over and appear to check for vital signs.The Bologna prosecutor's office has ordered an autopsy to determine the cause of death and has opened an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident, a standard procedure in Italy whenever someone dies during a police operation.Investigators are expected to examine whether the restraint contributed to Fakir's death or whether other factors, including a possible medical emergency or drug intoxication, played a role.The two officers involved will continue to work during the investigation.People gather near the scene where Abderrahim Fakir died while being held to the ground by police trying to arrest him in Bologna, Italy, July 19, 2026.
