Campaigners' fighting own battles for police accountability say Morgan report ‘rings true’
CAMPAIGNERS fighting their own battles for justice against the police said today that the findings of the Daniel Morgan report “ring true” with their own experiences.
The long-awaited report, published on Tuesday, found “institutional corruption” in the way the Metropolitan Police concealed or denied failings in its investigation into the private investigator’s unsolved murder.
It also found that the Met had prioritised concerns over its reputation ahead of the search for the truth.
