CONCERNS: Director of INQUEST Deborah Coles
CAMPAIGNERS expressed “deep concern” yesterday over a review into police accountability which they fear could weaken scrutiny of officers involved in deaths and serious incidents.
Inquest, a charity which investigates state-related deaths, alongside organisations including Liberty, Centre for Women’s Justice and the United Friends and Family Campaign, have written to the Home Secretary Yvette Cooper to outline their concerns.
The letter expressed frustration over the origins of the review, which it says was launched due to pressure from police following the decision to prosecute officer Martyn Blake over the fatal shooting of Chris Kaba.
