The Telegraph published this video item, entitled “French protester has testicle removed after being struck by police” – below is their description.
French prosecutors have launched an investigation after a man who was beaten by police while protesting against Emmanuel Macron’s pension reform plans had to have a testicle amputated.
Footage from last Thursday’s demonstrations published online shows a policeman hitting a man on the ground between the legs, and then leaving.
The 26-year-old man, identified in the French press as an engineer, said he was knocked to the ground, allegedly by an officer, while taking photos during a confrontation between demonstrators and police.
