Toronto Metropolitan University Reassigns Security After Violent Detainment of Pro-Palestine Student

Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) has announced the reassignment of security officers involved in the violent detainment of a pro-Palestine student protester on campus. The incident, captured in a widely circulated video, depicts security personnel restraining a student on the ground before handcuffing them. The video shows the student repeatedly exclaiming, "Get off me! You're hurting me!" and challenging the officers, stating, "You are not allowed to touch students on campus." Onlookers can be heard echoing these sentiments and questioning the security's actions. One security guard is heard stating the student is "under arrest for assault," to which the student responds, "For what assault? How did I assault you?" The university's decision to reassign the officers comes amidst public outrage and demands for accountability regarding the handling of student protests.
