On the other hand, according to The Independent;

Yasmin Khan, a social justice and race relations lawyer who runs the Justice4Jean campaign on behalf of Mr de Menezes' family, said: "Ian Blair has always had quite an evasive relationship with the truth and these extracts [from his autobiography] emphasise that. He seems to be trying to rewrite history because a lot of what he says flies in the face of what the jury at the inquest said."

Unfortunately, 'Sir Ian Blair hides behind quite an evasive relationship with the truth' doesn't scan very well, so I think I'll leave it as it was.
