Excerpt:

A disability pensioner who was pinned down by six policeman, repeatedly hit with a baton, capsicum sprayed and blasted with a garden hose outside his home has relived the moment he ‘thought he was going to die’.

In footage that has shocked Australia, Victorian police officers are heard yelling at John to ‘put your f***ing hands behind your f***ing back’ and asking if ‘he liked’ the smell of pepper spray after it was used on his face at close range.
