Justice4Jean Present Sir Ian Blair With Indictment on Last Day of Office
Above: Banner unfurled outside New Scotland YardThis morning members of the Jean Charles de Menezes Family Campaign marked Sir Ian’s Blair’s last day by delivering him a leaving present of a large blown up indictment. The indictment listed six acts Blair has been guilty of during his time in office.
Members of the campaign read the indictment outside New Scotland Yard and unveiled a 3 metre long banner which contained a picture of Jean Charles and the message “Sir Ian Blair – This is your legacy”. The indictment was accepted by officers at New Scotland Yard.
A spokesperson for the Justice4Jean Campaign said,
“We are delivering this indictment as a reminder of Blair’s failings over the Menezes shooting and to ensure that his successor understands that until there is justice for the killing of Jean Charles de Menezes, this case will continue to blight the Metropolitan Police Service.
It is particularly pertinent that we delivered this indictment today as next week the jury at the inquest return to begin deliberating their verdict. We hope the jury will be given the opportunity to consider a verdict which is appropriate to the injustice of the killing and that these ordinary members of the public deliver a verdict which will finally allow some justice to prevail over this tragedy”
