Famous Ghanaian-British rapper, Fuse ODG is said to have become a victim of racial profiling and police brutality in a recent incident in the United Kingdom.

In the video which he shared on his Instagram account, Fuse ODG could be seen and heard resisting the officers but was eventually overpowered. He was accompanied by a business partner at the time.

The artist has also described the incident as an act of racial profiling by UK law enforcers.

Fuse ODG can be heard in the video questioning the policemen and asking if they had a warrant.

The officers claimed they handcuffed him to prevent him from harming himself by potentially grabbing and swallowing drugs.
