Footage from Cunnamulla of a police officer threatening to flog an Indigenous man has led to an informal internal review.

In footage where the officer is speaking to the man’s sister he says the man should turn himself in otherwise the man would be flogged.

Darryn Munn, the man’s father has said the entire family is scared and that the man has fled for fear of his life after seeing the footage of the police officer giggling.

The Queensland Police Service has told the ABC South West District that it is conducting internal inquiries.
