During a heated Commons exchange, MPs raised concerns over body-camera footage showing police interactions with Nowak in his final moments, while others warned against using the tragedy to fuel tensions against the Sikh community or to restrict religious freedoms. Mahmood reiterated that "all are equal before the law" and insisted that police must always act "without fear and without favour." She also stressed that responsibility for the crime lies with the convicted murderer and not with any wider community. The Home Secretary pledged that the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) would carry out a full investigation into police actions and promised Parliament would be updated once the inquiry concludes. The debate also touched on knife crime, police accountability, religious freedoms and concerns over growing political divisions following the case.
