Anti-terror chief 'misled' public

[malaise]

Remember when the Brazilian Jean Charles de Menezes was shot eight times?

There were "serious weaknesses" in the Metropolitan Police's handling of information after the shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes, a report has found.

Assistant Commissioner Andy Hayman "misled" the public, the Independent Police Complaints Commission ruled.

It said Mr Hayman - the UK's most senior counter terrorist-officer - had advised the reporters that the dead man had not been one of four attempted bombers.

However, he had also allowed a Metropolitan Police press release to be issued later on the same afternoon, saying that it had not been clear whether he had been one of the four.

"He could not have believed both inconsistent statements were true," the IPCC said.

Liars, liars everywhere.

shot him seven times in the head, and once in the shoulder.....Just for comparison, people might want to take a look at a photo of the man the murderers mistook Mr de Menezes for:
