👮 A police officer who watched and laughed as her male colleague broke an elderly woman's arm and dislocated her shoulder, has been jailed.

▪️ Daria Jalali was sentenced to 45 days in jail followed by three years of probation for a case the presiding judge described as “incomprehensible.”

▪️ The 28-year-old officer was using a body-worn camera and the judge watched the 12 minute footage showing how Karen Garner, who had dementia, was treated during the arrest in 2020.

▪️ Policeman Austin Hopp twisted the arm of Mrs Garner and pushed her to the floor as she picked flowers, after she had left a Walmart store without paying for goods valued at $14 - equivalent to around £10.

▪️ The case in the city of Loveland, Colorado in the USA saw officer Hopp sentenced to five years in prison in May after pleading guilty to second-degree assault.

🇷🇺 A UK research institute has apologized to a Russian scientist who was told that her application to study was rejected because of her nationality. She has now been offered a place.

The Beatson Institute reportedly sent a rejection message to the applicant, saying that "very recently the Beatson has established a new policy upon which I am unable to appoint you because you are Russian... really hope that you can find a place to do your PhD!”

Commenting on the criticism that the rejection caused, Director Owen Sansom said in a statement: “Applications are considered on a case-by-case basis and offers are always reviewed against external checks, such as visa requirements or UK government sanctions. In this case, there was an initial misunderstanding of these restrictions, which has been addressed.”

🇬🇧 What's behind the medicine shortage in the UK?

Dr. Bharat Pankhania, a senior clinical lecturer at The University of Exeter's Medical School, told Sputnik that the recent shortage of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and some other drugs was because of the UK leaving the European Union.

"Trade between the European Union and the United Kingdom is affected and it is affecting supplies of essential radioisotopes as well as antibiotics and cancer treatments, as well as other medicines," Pankhania said, "This is a consequence of Brexit."

The senior medic blamed the government for refusing to address the big issue, which is UK trade with EU, and warned that the lack of HRT could affect patients "across the board" in the National Health Service.

🔻However, the Daily Express offered a different explanation, reporting that the lack of HRT since April this year is caused by a shortage of material imported from the Far East.
