Have you read about the trending story of Dalia Kafi? 

She was the victim of an assault by a Calgary police officer while they were on duty in 2017.

The incident was caught on CCTV.

In the footage, Kafi is shown being thrown face-first to the ground while handcuffed and being arrested on December 13, 2017, for violating a curfew.

Where her face landed on the floor, blood gushed out and stained the tiles. 

As soon as the other cops arrived on the scene, Constable Alex Dunn, the police officer who assaulted her, was spotted taking a walk backwards.

In May 2019, one count of assault resulting in serious bodily injury was brought against the police officer.

According to the report sighted by Mandy News on Canadian media outlets, Alex Dunn was found guilty in December 2020.

Dunn received a one-month prison term. In other words, he didn’t spend any time behind bars, and instead he was placed under 24-hour house arrest, which was also followed by house arrest with a curfew.
