witness call for police assault

at 20:00 10/09/03 a group of four of us were attempting to travel on the Canning Town tube after being on the RTS that happened on the A16.

First I was refused entry on the pretence that I had been drinking, in fact I hadn't touched a drop all day. I was telling the amassed police that I had spoken to a channel 4 reporter and they were disgusted by the level of the police violence and intimidation.

I still tried to get into the station, I was shouting about police brutality and one officer said "I'll show you police brutality"

I was grabbed from behind by two officers and pushed to the ground and then pinned down two other officers repeatedly kicked in the stomatch

I was told that if I showed my face around here again I would get the same and refused entry to the station.

I need witnesses to this, there was a woman with a video camera, but anyone there really

If the woman can contact me my email below or Kiearn & Co Chestrefield Derbyshire and wi; also be contacting Liberty so maybe footage to them

Why are you wasting tax payers money that could be better spent on hospitals and the poor than on police overtime, legal barristers, legal paperwork etc etc etc etc to make a point that the police hassled you. The government passes the bills you create to the people and could not care less how much it costs.
