Mikael Boukhari claims he was punched and repeatedly hit by a member of the force using a baton last July.

The police watchdog said it was investigating whether the officer's use of force was "reasonable, proportionate and necessary".

Mr Boukhari said he needed hospital treatment after injuries he says he sustained, including a broken hand.

He said the day before the incident he was questioned by police on suspicion of driving while disqualified.

The following day, he said he was asked to meet police officers by a park in Bettws, Newport, to produce documents.

"I've gone to show it to him, and he's gone to grab me," Mr Boukhari said.

"I'm thinking, why are you trying to grab me for?"

Mr Boukhari said he was afraid and nervous and instinctively ran.

He went a few hundred metres to his friend's house, and into her back garden.
