The Baird Inquiry was set up to investigate the treatment of people in Greater Manchester Police custody, following a Sky News investigation carried out by our home affairs editor, Jason Farrell.

Dame Vera Baird, a former victims’ commissioner, examined 15 cases and concluded that GMP was guilty of unlawful arrests, humiliating searches and exercising powers it does not have.

Niall Paterson is joined by Jason to hear more stories from people mistreated by GMP and to analyze Dame Vera’s findings.

Plus, Niall speaks to Maggie Oliver, a former GMP detective who campaigns for greater police accountability.
