G20 Massacre ex Wiki
QUOTE
After
The Guardian published the video, the
Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) began a criminal inquiry
from which the police were removed. A second postmortem was ordered by the IPCC
and Tomlinson's family, indicating that Tomlinson had died from internal
bleeding caused by a blunt force trauma to the abdomen, in association with
cirrhosis of the liver. The officer in question, PC Simon Harwood, was
interviewed on suspicion of manslaughter. A third postmortem was conducted at
the request of his defence team; the third pathologist agreed that the cause of
death was internal bleeding. The IPCC completed its investigation in August 2009
and passed its file to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), which announced in
July 2010 that no charges would be brought. The CPS concluded that medical
disagreement about the cause of the death meant prosecutors could not prove
beyond a reasonable doubt that there was a causal link between the death and the
alleged assault. The first pathologist, Dr Freddy Patel, has been suspended
pending a General Medical Council hearing into allegations of misconduct in
several unrelated cases.
The officer seen pushing Tomlinson on The Guardian's video
is a constable with the Met's
Territorial Support Group (TSG or CO20), a unit of 720 officers who can be
identified by the "U" on their
shoulder numbers. Known as the "tough guys and girls" of the Met—according
to
The Job, the force's in-house magazine—they specialize in
public-disorder policing, wearing NATO-style helmets, flame-retardant overalls,
stab vests, and balaclavas, and carrying batons, pepper spray, and handcuffs.
They are authorized to use tasers, and specially trained officers may carry
handguns or
Heckler & Koch MP5s. The operational commander of the TSG at the time of the
incident was Chief Superintendent Mick Johnson.

Third autopsy into G20 victim Ian Tomlinson's death
QUOTE
A third autopsy has been held to establish the cause of
the death of Ian Tomlinson, the 47-year-old father of nine who collapsed
and died after police attacked protesters at the G20 summit of world
leaders in London earlier this month.
It comes after a second autopsy, held at the request of
his family, found that Tomlinson died of internal bleeding. That finding
contradicted the outcome of the original autopsy, which found [
alleged/claimed/stated - delete to taste ] that
Tomlinson had died of a heart attack.
Tomlinson, a newspaper vendor, was attempting to make his way home after
work, when he was caught in a police “kettling” operation—the forcible
detention of protestors behind police cordons for up to seven hours.
It was initially claimed that no physical contact had taken place between
the police and Tomlinson before his death. But video footage and
photographic stills showed that Tomlinson was brutally assaulted from
behind by a masked officer, who had struck him across the legs with his
asp—an extending steel baton—causing him to fall and hit his head.
In the last days, more evidence has come to light to indicate that this
was only the last of three separate police assaults on Tomlinson before he
collapsed and died.
According to a timetable of events leading up to Tomlinson’s death
published by the Telegraph, the first encounter occurred shortly after
6pm. Tomlinson, who it is claimed appeared to have been drinking, was
smoking a cigarette in the road. When a riot van tried and failed to get
past him, eye witness Ross Hardy told the newspaper he saw four riot
police drag Tomlinson to the pavement.
Some 30 minutes later Tomlinson—who in the meantime had tried to find his
way out of the police trap—became stuck in a cordon on the pedestrianised
area by the Royal Exchange buildings. Anna Braithwaite, a 36-year-old
freelance photographer, says she saw Tomlinson being pushed to the ground
by a police officer.
“It wasn’t just pushing him—he’d rushed him,” she told the Telegraph. “He
went to the floor and he did actually roll. That was quite noticeable.
“Ian landed on his left hand side and bounced because of the force of the
impact. He looked absolutely terrified.
“The officer hit him twice with a baton when he was lying on the floor.
Then the officer picked him up from the back, continued to walk or charge
with him, and threw him.”
A “shaken and confused” Tomlinson then tried to find another way out of
the cordon, the Telegraph account continued.
“Just after 7.20pm, he was seen being closely followed by a line of
police—some in riot helmets and others holding German Shepherds on leads.”
Tomlinson was walking along with his hands in his pockets when,
“[S]uddenly without warning, an officer in a balaclava and helmet appeared
to strike Mr. Tomlinson on the back of the leg with a baton before shoving
him to the ground.
“He fell heavily and rolled onto his back, where he was helped by a couple
of protesters.”
After a few minutes, he was helped to his feet by a protestor. Soon,
however, he “had to start running as police pushed protesters eastwards
along the road, where he finally collapsed near St Michael’s Alley at
7.25pm.”
Territorial Support Group
No mention of internal bleeding was made when the results of the first
post-mortem, conducted by Dr. Freddy Patel, were published. Patel found
that Tomlinson died of a heart attack, but the second post-mortem, carried
out by Dr. Nat Cary, states that while “there is evidence of coronary
atherosclerosis... its nature and extent is unlikely to have contributed
to the cause of death.”
Tomlinson died from an abdominal haemorrhage, Cary’s report found, the
cause of which “remains to be ascertained”.
The usual cause of abdominal bleeding is trauma. The second autopsy led to
the police officer involved being interviewed under caution on suspicion
of manslaughter. The third autopsy is at the police officer’s request. The
outcome was not known at the time of writing.
It has transpired that Patel has previously been reprimanded by the
General Medical Council. Speaking to reporters about the death of Roger
Sylvester, a 30-year old black male who died in police custody, Patel had
said that medical records showed “Mr. Sylvester was a user of crack
cocaine.” Sylvester’s family protested the suggestion and entered a
complaint.
Tomlinson’s son Paul King said, “We believe we were badly misled by police
about the possible role they played in Ian’s death. First we were told
that there had been no contact with the police, then we were told that he
died of a heart attack. Now we know that he was violently assaulted by a
police officer and died from internal bleeding. As time goes on we hope
that the full truth about how Ian died will be made known.”
Tomlinson’s death is currently under investigation by the Independent
Police Complaints Commission, which has received more than 180 complaints
over police behaviour during protests around the G20 summit.
These include complaints of an assault on 35-year-old female protestor
Nicola Fisher (See “Britain: More video evidence of police brutality
during G20 protests”). Video footage shows Fisher, who was attempting to
join a vigil for Tomlinson following his death the previous day, being
struck across her face by a heavily-built police officer, using the back
of his hand. When she protests, he draws his asp, strikes her across her
legs, felling her to the ground.
Both police officers involved in the assault on Tomlinson and Fisher were
members of the quasi-paramilitary Territorial Support Group and had
concealed their identification numbers.
The Times revealed that the police officer suspended over the assault on
Fisher had been reported for an alleged attack on another female the day
before. Katie Surridge, a 24-year-old student, said, “One minute I was
standing up and the next I was on the floor. I had been pushed to the
ground by an officer—I had my back to him and it was totally unprovoked.
He didn’t try to justify it at all—initially I was just confused. A group
of people shouted at him: ‘You can’t do that to a woman’, but he just
walked off.”
In this instance, the officer’s ID was on show and the number recorded by
the complainant matches that of the TSG sergeant involved with Fisher.
Journalists assaulted
Organisers of the Climate Camp protest at the G20 on April 1 have handed
over a dossier containing hundreds of eye witness statements concerning
police brutality to the IPCC. In one incident, caught on video,
24-year-old IT technician Alex Kinnane is struck over the head with a
police riot shield.
The National Union of Journalists is also said to be looking into reports
of systematic police violence against its members covering the
demonstrations.
Video journalist Jason Parkinson told the Sunday Herald, to which he is a
regular contributor, that he was repeatedly assaulted during the protests.
Describing the police actions during the G20 protests as involving
“probably the most brutal violence I have seen since May Day 2000 (when
about 150,000 people marched in London during anti-capitalist
demonstrations)”, Parkinson told of “indiscriminate attacks on people
doing nothing wrong.”
He had been “hit repeatedly” by police. As he tried to film, police staged
a baton charge on protestors.
“I pulled my camera out of reach of their batons and started yelling
‘press’ at them. When they missed the camera that’s when about six or
seven blows came down on my head from telescopic batons.” He was concussed
for several days as a result.
Parkinson continued, “I saw them punching and kicking journalists. From
the very beginning they did nothing but assault the press. Because of the
way it has been for the last few years with the Metropolitan Police,
everybody who covers these things has a press card clearly visible.”
“I was wearing shin pads because you have to be prepared. I wear a very
sturdy helmet. If you are on the front line the first thing they do is
start kicking out at you. The baton charge on the press shows how
indiscriminate it is.
“The police do not care who you are, you are fair game. It has been worse
in the last 18 months to two years.”
Parkinson’s experience was one of several cited by Marc Vallee in the
Guardian.
Photographer Terence Bunch told Vallee that he had been “pushed violently
from behind and thrown to the floor with some force, and then unable to
get up due to a wrist injury while a large police rank ran over me causing
more injuries to my left leg. It was only the intervention of another
photographer who was already behind this rank coming to my aid that
allowed me to get out and on to hospital.”
Photographer David Hoffman had also been assaulted by police for taking a
photograph, Vallee wrote. These incidents were all evidence of how the
government and police were attempting “to criminalise not only those who
protest but also those who dare to give the oxygen of publicity to such
dissent.”
This is further underscored by the video footage of a City of London
police inspector, surrounded by TSG officers, instructing journalists and
camera crew to leave the vicinity or face arrest. [

Citing section 14 of the Public Order Act 1986, the group of 20 were told
to go away for 30 minutes to help police “resolve this situation”—a
reference to confrontations with protestors. When the order is queried,
the officer tells the reporters that unless they comply they will be put
in the cells. When they protest again, he tells them to “shut up”.

The
officer struck Tomlinson with a baton and shoved him to the ground shortly
before the newspaper seller collapsed and died. The officer's badge numbers were
covered and his face concealed beneath a balaclava.
Tomlinson had his hands in his pockets and
his back to the officer when he was struck. No police officer went to his aid
and it was left to a bystander to lift him to his feet. He stumbled about 100
metres down Cornhill, clutching his side, before collapsing a second time.
Police initially led Tomlinson's wife and
nine children to believe he died of a heart attack after being caught up in
the
protest. In statements to the press, police
claimed attempts by officers to save his life by resuscitation were impeded by
protesters.
UNQUOTE
Concealing his number proves an intention to commit
crime. Allowing him to go out that way shows connivance by other police. The
fact that they lied to their victim's family ditto and absolutely normal. If
there had not been an honest man with a video they would have gotten away with
murder easily. In the event they had to try harder. A bent medical examiner is
useful. Ditto for a judge that is going to see things their way.

criticised for suggesting that the newspaper seller

to have behaved irresponsibly in a series of other autopsies. The General
Medical Council found that Dr Freddy Patel, 63, had failed to spot injury marks
on the body of a young child and had altered the cause of a woman's death in
order to "satisfy the family". The GMC panel will decide on Dr Patel's fitness
to practice in the coming weeks. The GMC findings published today follow doubts
raised about his professional conduct in relation to the postmortem examinations
of four people. None of the cases related to Ian Tomlinson, the newspaper seller
who died after being struck and shoved to the ground by riot
police during the April 2009 protests in the City of London.

Police Man Lied After G20 Massacre [

A senior Metropolitan
police officer has been found to have "recklessly" misled two pathologists
over the possible cause of
Ian Tomlinson's death at the
G20 protests in London. Detective Inspector Eddie Hall was investigated
after it emerged he told two forensic experts Tomlinson had fallen to the
ground in front of a police van before the newspaper seller later came into
contact with PC Simon Harwood.
Hall's description of the fall, which did not happen, was
formally relayed to two pathologists charged with finding a cause of
47-year-old Tomlinson's death. The Independent Police Complaints Commission ruled that Hall had been
reckless, but accepted that he did not deliberately mislead the pathologists.
The IPCC has opened a fresh inquiry into whether City of London police
failed to deal appropriately with information from three other Met police
witnesses, who came forward less than 48 hours after the death to say they had
seen a colleague push the newspaper vendor to the ground.......
However she said the IPCC's report did not take into account the fact that,
just two days after Tomlinson died, three police constables from Hammersmith
and Fulham station told seniors they had seen him struck with baton and pushed
to the ground.

At G20 protests, City of London police officers warn

Link to this video
Who needs
section 76 when you have a baton? Back in February I wrote how
terror legislation had been increasingly used by this government, and
brutally enforced by the police, to criminalise not only those who protest
but also those who dare to give the
oxygen of publicity to such dissent.
In the aftermath of the G20 protests, with the
death of a man trying to get home, it is right and proper that the
press shine a light beyond the headlines and get to the truth of what took
place not only to
Ian Tomlinson but also to the hundreds of protesters who now know what
a police baton or for that matter the
back of a heavy protected police hand feels like.
At the same time it is important to note that many media workers, at
some risk, went to work over these two days to document what was taking
place. With the wholesale cutting of picture rates and jobs in the media
due to the recession, the internet, mismanagement or in my view a
mixture
of all three, it was no surprise to me that the press were under huge
pressure not only to come up with important and stunning pictures and
footage but also to make sure this content got sold.
Terence Bunch, a
photographer I have known for a number of years, came up with some
stunning pictures. In this
film, published by the Guardian, you can see a police charge towards a
group of photographers, during which one hits the ground very hard – that
was Terry. He told me: "I found myself pushed violently from behind and
thrown to the floor with some force, and then unable to get up due to a
wrist injury while a large police rank ran over me causing more injuries
to my left leg. It was only the intervention of another photographer who
was already behind this rank coming to my aid that allowed me to get out
and on to hospital."
Jason N Parkinson,
a journalist I have worked on lots of protests with, who shot the above
film footage and gave it to the Guardian, told me he had concussion for
three days after being repeatedly batoned across the head by the police.
He said that this was despite wearing a professional helmet with press
across the front and back. In the incident with Bunch, Parkinson told me
he was repeatedly batoned , then a police medic used the end of his baton
in a double-handed jabbing motion into his right kidney. Parkinson said
this was so hard he collapsed afterwards until he could breathe again.
David Hoffman, who has
been documenting dissent on the streets of Britain for more than 30 years,
was attacked by the police as well. You can see this for yourself in this
excellent
film by Ollie
Wainwright (Hoffman is the chap with the white hair). The police
officer in full riot gear goes for Hoffman – his crime? Taking a picture.
The day after Tomlinson's death we had a
City of London police inspector, backup by a group of territorial
support group officers, ordering the media to leave the area as police
"kettle" protesters who had congregated to mark his death. The police
officer ordered 20 members of the media to leave the area for 30 minutes
under the threat of arrest by citing section 14 of the
Public Order Act 1986 (pdf).
This
film, also published by the Guardian, shows the journalists (including
me) having a "conversation" with the inspector. At one point he tells me
to "shut up" when I question him about his actions. You have to ask
yourself why section 14 was used against a group of working journalists.
Why did the police want the journalists to be moved away from the protest
for 30 minutes and 200 yards up the road? And why all of this was done
under the threat of arrest?
Also, you have to ask why so many media workers ended up in hospital.
The only thing I can think of is, fewer cameras equals fewer independent
witnesses.

Police Must Be Better Trained On The Rights Of The Press
QUOTE
Officers dealing with protests or demonstrations
should be better briefed on the rights and regulations of the press, the
general secretary of the National Union of Journalists (NUJ) has said.
Speaking at a Home Affairs Select Committee earlier this week, Jeremy Dear
said that too few officers are aware of the guidelines set up regarding the
rights of the press at public order events such as G20 and that few
recognised, or were prepared to recognise, the press card and what it means.
While guidelines were established between the NUJ, the Association of Chief
Police Officers (ACPO) and the Metropolitan Police Service ahead of the
protests at G20, Mr. Dear said there was a “huge misunderstanding” in the way
the guidelines were followed and said part of this was down to lack of
training and briefing.
He called for “significant improvements” in the briefing of officers ahead
of public order events such as G20 saying that all press, including
freelancers, should be invited to such briefings. He did concede, however,
that there may be security issues surrounding the publication of such
briefing details on the Internet.
The media and police have a “common interest”, he said, and it is important
for them to maintain a “good working relationship”.....
The NUJ will be submitting a dossier of complaints from 13 journalists to
the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) this week. While Mr. Dear
said this appeared to be a high level of complaints, it was to be expected
as the presence of press at the event was high.

Scotland Yard admits to mistakes over acquitted officer as chequered

with a chequered disciplinary record after he was acquitted of
killing
Ian Tomlinson at the G20 protests in London in 2009. The jury at Southwark crown court, who took four days to clear PC
Simon Harwood of manslaughter on a majority verdict, was not told
that the officer had been investigated a number of other times for
alleged violence and misconduct [ or how he got away with them -
Editor ].
Harwood quit the Metropolitan
police on health grounds in 2001, shortly before a planned
disciplinary hearing into claims that while off-duty he illegally
tried to arrest a man in a road rage incident, altering notes
retrospectively to justify his actions.
He was nonetheless able to join another force, Surrey, returning
to the Met in 2005. In a string of other alleged incidents Harwood
was accused of having punched, throttled, kneed or threatened other
suspects while in uniform, although only one complaint was upheld.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission described the chain
of events around Harwood's rejoining his old force before becoming
part of its elite Territorial Support Group as "simply staggering".......
Tomlinson's family said they would now take civil action against
the Met, while the force said that it would hold Harwood to account
in a public disciplinary hearing.
The Met's deputy assistant commissioner,
Maxine de Brunner [ who keeps on
getting promoted after 'misleading' Prince Charles - Editor ],
conceded that Harwood should never have been allowed to re-join the
force........
British juries are notoriously reluctant to convict police for
serious alleged crimes carried out on duty. No police officer has

cases in which families have alleged wrongdoing.

Harwood, 45, who was found not guilty of Tomlinson's manslaughter
on Thursday, had repeatedly been accused of using excessive force
during his career, including claims he punched, throttled, kneed and
unlawfully arrested people........
The inquest jury – which concluded last year that Tomlinson was
"unlawfully killed" by the police officer – was also prevented from
hearing the details of the complaints........
Eventually, the Met was instructed to share the files with
interested parties. When lawyers from Tomlinson's family were able

allegations of physical assaults.

Met Police Had Concerns Over Patel In 2004 [
24 August 2012 ]
QUOTE
The Metropolitan
police raised concerns in 2004 with the Home Office about the standards
of pathologist
Freddy Patel, five years before the botched
Ian Tomlinson's postmortem that led to his professional downfall and
findings of misconduct and dishonesty on Tuesday............
Of the seven cases dating back to 2002, for which Patel has been
investigated, professional failings have been found in five, including his
investigation into the death of Tomlinson, who died after being struck
during a G20 protest in April 2009.
The GMC has asked the independent panel hearing the Tomlinson case and
reviewing others to strike Patel off the medical register, the passport to
all work for doctors.
The GMC is understood to have been conducting its own investigation into
the case of Sally White, the first victim of the Camden Ripper, Anthony
Hardy. Patel said she died of natural causes, thus delaying a murder
investigation that might have prevented two further deaths. It is understood
that this was not one of the four cases first complained of by the Met........ The NPIA revealed that Patel had lied about
his status and deliberately concealed that he was not part of a group
practice of pathologists, which was a requirement to remain on the Home
Office register after 2006.
UNQUOTE
The Met knew that Patel was a crooked Pakistani but they didn't say
anything when he gave them the result they wanted after perpetrating
the G20 Massacre; the lies that kept their
thug out of prison.
G20 Massacre Pathologist Banned
Is it just a coincidence that Patel is a Pakistani? I doubt it.
G20 Killer Sacked Allegedly [
18 September 2012 ]
QUOTE
Ian Tomlinson case: PC Simon Harwood sacked
for gross misconduct
Officer's actions at G20 protest discredited police service and
undermined public confidence, rules disciplinary panel
The Metropolitan policeman who struck and pushed
Ian Tomlinson as he walked away from riot officers on
the fringe of the G20 protests in
London has been sacked with immediate effect after a
disciplinary hearing found he had committed gross
misconduct.It was "inconceivable" that Simon Harwood, who was
cleared of Tomlinson's manslaughter in July following one of
the most high-profile cases of
police misconduct in recent years, could ever work as a
police officer again, the three-strong panel ruled. Commander Julian Bennett, who chaired the panel, said:
"PC Harwood's use of force in this case cannot be justified.
His actions have discredited the police service and
undermined public confidence in it.....
Harwood, whose long and at times murky prior disciplinary
record was not disclosed at his trial, would be sacked with
immediate effect, Bennett said. However, he will keep his
pension entitlement as he has not been convicted of a crime........
Harwood was nonetheless able to join another force,
Surrey, before returning to serve with the Met in 2005. He
also allegedly punched, throttled, kneed or threatened other
suspects while in uniform in other incidents. Most of the
complaints were [ alleged to have been ] unproven.
It is only the second time the Independent Police
Complaints Commission has instructed police to hold a
disciplinary hearing in public following a law passed in
2008.
The only other public hearing concerned officers accused
of failing in their duty when they did not respond to
repeated calls from Colette Lynch, a young woman in Rugby,
Warwickshire, about threats from her ex-partner. He
stabbed her to death days later
UNQUOTE
The pigs say Harwood's attack cannot be justified? Why did
they lie to the family, use a bent medical examiner and do
everything else to keep him out of prison? In order to
pervert the course of justice. Harwood will get a job
with the police as a driving instructor or whatever. It is
SOP [ Standard Operating Procedure ].

cock ups, over-emphasis, malice [ real or imaginary ] or whatever; if
