The South African police watchdog is investigating the death of a man in custody after a newspaper published video footage of him being handcuffed to a police van and dragged along a road.
Amateur video footage obtained by the Daily Sun newspaper shows the man, who South African media say was taxi driver, Mido Macia, a 27-year-old originally from Mozambique, being dragged for around 400m behind their vehicle after being approached by police in Johannebsurg.

The Independent Police Directorate (IPID) have said today they are investigating the death of Mr Macia.
