Mr Hassan's aunt Zainab:
"He was released on Saturday morning with lots of wounds on his body and lots of bruises. He didn't have these wounds when he was arrested and when he came out of Cardiff Bay police station, he had them. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-55611642

She continued: "Nothing we do is going to bring him back but we will not rest for a second until we have justice."

Police accountability for the lives of people in their custody has been non-existent. South Wales Police have a particularly sordid history with racist violence. The only way these problems change is if the institution is fundamentally changed. https://www.voice.wales/demands-for-answers-justice-as-black-man-dies-following-detainment-by-south-wales-police/
The only hope for any kind of #Justice4Mohamud is through long term campaigning. The family are going to need the support of everyone who is outraged by his death https://twitter.com/POC4INDY/status/1348602460781371392?s=20
