I don't follow Spanish media, but it seemed like this article/video made a point of showing the guy in handcuffs. That appears like someone is trying to make point.

Edit: Actually, I don't see the video in this article, but there was a video that showed the groping event and then ended with the guy in handcuffs, being escorted by Spanish police.

The video was linked in a different post: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/9/14/spanish-police-arrest-man-for-groping-reporter-isa-balado-while-live-on-air?traffic_source=rss

They showed the guy in handcuffs because he was arrested. What's your point? I said he will be convicted, just not because of the extra media attention this is getting now.

My point is that the media is drawing extra attention to his arrest - as a direct result of what happened. As opposed to any other guy that might get arrested for groping and nothing is mentioned about it.
