A man who was detained while a police officer knelt on his neck in "deeply disturbing" arrest footage has appeared in court.

Marcus Coutain, 48, appeared at Highbury Corner Magistrates' Court on Saturday morning charged with possessing a knife in public.

During a short hearing on Saturday afternoon, Coutain indicated a plea of not guilty. His lawyer Timur Rustem said the case "mirrors almost identically what happened to George Floyd" in the US, and said his client had the blade on him for repairing his bicycle.

The police watchdog is investigating the manner of the arrest in Islington, north London, on Thursday evening, which has resulted in one Metropolitan Police officer being suspended and another placed on restricted duties. Sign up to
