UK government's crime bill adds to anger over Everard's death

The UK government is attempting to justify flagship legislation that critics say would hand the police and ministers powers that could seriously curb the ability of citizens to protest at a very difficult time.

The legislation is being debated in Parliament just days after officers from Londonā€™s Metropolitan Police forcefully broke up a peaceful demonstration mourning the death of a young woman, Sarah Everard.

CNNā€™s Nina Dos Santos reports.
