‘Why a man died hours after being released from police custody remains unknown after the jury in his inquest delivered an open conclusion.
Mohamud Hassan, 24, died in a flat on Newport Road, Cardiff in January 2021. He had been arrested the previous night on suspicion of an alleged breach of the peace.

The answer it would seem is that you can, but the arbitrators will have their hands relatively tied as to what relief they can order.’
