#new New details have been revealed in the trial of a migrant who was convicted of m*rdering a student by stabbing him five times with an 8 inch knife
On May 28th, 23-year-old Vickrum Digwa was convicted of m*rdering 18-year-old Henry Nowak.
His mother, Kiran Kaur, 53, was convicted of “assisting an offender” by removing the m*rder weapon from the scene.
The jury at Southampton Crown Court rejected Digwa’s claims of self-defense and that Nowak had racially abused him, punched him, and knocked off his turban – claims described by prosecutors as “wicked lies.”
Digwa was also convicted of carrying a knife in public.
It turns out the whole family was involved in the m*rder.
Digwa lied to police, claiming he was the victim of a racist attack by a drunk Nowak who insulted him and knocked off his turban.
He denied stabbing anyone and said, “No one stabbed you, brother, you’re drunk.”
Digwa’s brother, Gurpreet Digwa, called 999 and falsely claimed the brothers had been attacked on racial grounds:
“We’re Sikhs, we wear a turban and he’s just attacked my brother.” He said no weapons were involved.
Family members, including Digwa’s father, arrived and accused Nowak of faking his injuries, claiming he had been talking normally moments earlier.
Digwa’s mother, Kiran Kaur, removed the bloody knife from the scene and took it to the family home in St Denys Road, where it was later recovered.
Three officers arrived and immediately handcuffed the bleeding Nowak as he lay in a pool of blood.
Nowak repeatedly told them: “I’ve been stabbed,” “I can’t breathe.”
One officer reportedly laughed when he made the statement, and the other responded on bodycam: “I don’t think you have, mate.”
They dragged him across gravel while restrained.
Only after he lost consciousness did they remove the handcuffs and attempt resuscitation. He died at the scene.
Police then searched Nowak’s and his father’s phones for racist messages or jokes.
Hampshire Police issued a public apology after the verdict.
“I’m sorry that Henry’s life couldn’t be saved that night, and I’m sorry that he was handcuffed and arrested in the moments before he lost consciousness. He was the victim… We were lied to by the perpetrator.”
Critics say fear of racism allegations, along with the killer’s and family’s coordinated lies, caused Nowak’s death.
They are demanding the full release of bodycam footage, accountability for the officers, and reforms against prioritizing “hurty words” over obvious life-threatening injuries.
Elon Musk publicly offered to fund a wrongful death lawsuit against the police on behalf of the family.
The case fuels wider frustration over the massive influx of migrants pouring into countries and ‘taking over’
Details:
Henry Nowak, a first-year University of Southampton finance student was walking home from a night out with friends.
His blood alcohol level was below the drunk-drive limit.
Video from Nowak’s phone captured a verbal exchange where Digwa said “I am a bad man.”
Digwa then stabbed Nowak multiple times, including a fatal chest wound that punctured his lung and wounds to his legs.
Nowak tried to run, and jump over a fence but collapsed.
Digwa filmed the victim as he bled out and later had Nowak’s phone in his pocket.
Digwa’s bedroom was described as an “arsenal” of weapons; he had trained with blades since age 12 and described the kirpan in “loving terms.”
