How South African Police Officers Brutally Assaulted A 27-Year-Old Man To His Death Over Parking Dispute (PHOTOS)

A shocking video emerged today of South African police officers tying a Mozambican immigrant to their van and dragging him through the streets. 

The incident brings fresh embarrassment to the country's criminal justice system which is under intense international scrutiny due to the high profile Oscar Pistorius murder trial.

Mr Macia was heard begging officers to stop the assault with his hands handcuffed above his head and to the inside of the van.

The officer driving the van is seen to reverse while Mr Macia tries to stop himself being caught underneath.

Members of the crowd are seen filming on their smartphones as officers pick up his legs and carry him as the van pulls away.

They then drop him on the floor and he is dragged along the road. The van stops again and two police officers pick up a leg each and run behind the van as it picks up speed.

Again, they dropped his limbs as the van drove out of the camera's sight.
The victim, Mido Macia, 27, was found dead in police custody just two hours after being arrested for the parking dispute in the Daveyton township.

The van sped away from the crowd with Mr Macia still handcuffed to the back
