GUEST,TA Keith BS: Police guilty over Menezes (90* d) RE: BS: Police guilty over Menezes 12 Dec 08


See the jury wouldn't be gagged today, police murdered the guy. Police used "Shoot to kill " tactics just as they did in the North of Ireland in the 1980's. State thugs exposed.

The jury has returned an open verdict at the inquest into the death of Jean Charles de Menezes, whom police mistook for a suicide bomber.

It rejected the police account Mr de Menezes was killed lawfully by two officers who shot him seven times at Stockwell Tube in south London.

His mother, Maria Otone de Menezes, said she was very happy and felt "reborn" after hearing the verdict.

The Metropolitan Police said the Brazilian's death was a tragic mistake.

After the verdict was announced the de Menezes family lawyer said officers should be investigated for perjury - a call immediately rejected by the Independent Police Complaints Commission.

The inquest jury was given the choice of two possible verdicts, but chose to reject the option that Mr Menezes was killed lawfully by the police.
