A new video shows the moments immediately after the death of Abderrahim Fakir, the 42-year-old who died during a police detention on Sunday in the Pilastro neighbourhood of Bologna.

In the footage, a forensic police officer uncovers the man's body, which is wrapped in a sheet with his ankles still bound. Fakir's body is lying on its back with his mouth open.

Beneath his head there is a large pool of blood. Blood is also visible on his face.
