There is literally no legal reason for a policeman to punch a protestor
There are many. Police can use violence to enforce compliance, prevent harm, and other reasons. Protests and protestors have to follow the law, and they don’t always.
If you listen to the video, there‘s a German police voice instructing the protestors to follow police instructions. Sadly the video is cut in a way, where you don’t get to hear the actual police instructions.
There is no context, so it’s impossible to say if this was legal or not.
