Student president, 22, investigated after he unhooked girl's bra at alcohol-fuelled party used to promote the university
A cheeky student president is being investigated after footage emerged of him unclipping a girl's bra at an alcohol-fuelled university party.
Nick Swain, 22, was filmed sneaking up on the blonde student from behind while being egged on by friends before grabbing her red underwear and unhooking it one-handed.
The Warwick University student, who is standing for re-election as president this week, then cheers as the shocked girl desperately tries to cover herself up.
The 90-second clip also shows half-naked students pulling their trousers down, appearing to wear Hitler moustaches while shouting 'get your t*ts out'.
The video opens with a shot of Swain - studying for an MA in Creative and Media Enterprises at the Coventry seat of learning - sitting at a table laden with empty bottles.
Warwick Students' Union continuously strives to support and promote its code of conduct and equal opportunities policy, and we take any alleged breaches of the policy extremely seriously.
'The union is now actively investigating these complaints.'
There has been a mixed response to the video on YouTube, with one user writing: 'As a result of this video, I will be voting Nick Swain for president next year.'
But another student added: 'The behaviour of pretty much everyone a the party looked abhorrent.
'Aside from the absolutely shocking assault of Nick Swain on an innocent woman, other students were wearing Hitler moustaches while screaming football chants.
'As university students they should have fun, of course, but be above such animalistic behaviour.'
The university yesterday said it was a 'matter for the Students' Union'.
