Met Police shot Azelle Rodney dead, similar to Jean Charles de Menezes case

Police "lies" over man shot by cops

THE MOTHER of a man gunned down by armed police has hit out at lies put out about her son. Tearful Susan Alexander accused the Metropolitan Police of spreading false information in the wake of the fatal shooting in Edgware, north London.

Mr Rodney, who had just celebrated his 24th birthday, was shot seven times in a pre-planned police operation in April 2005.

Azelle Rodney another victim of the Met Police

The case has remarkable similarities with the shooting dead of Brazilian Jean Charles de Menezes at London's Stockwell underground station.

When will British police stop killing people and getting away with murder?

Why isn't there proper punishment when police brutality occurs?

So the fact he was a passenger in a vehicle where he and two other persons were armed with semi automatic pistols and were on route to assasinate a rival drugs pusher, and when stopped by armed police decided to point a semi automatic pistol at police officers, (multiple witnesses statements to this fact from tourists sat outside cafes in the vicinity) had nothing to do with him being shot then?

This doesnt compare to the assassination of the brazillian chap in any way shape or form.

The truth shall set you free

Unfortunately some of the journalists the write for blink aren't objective reporters of fact. This blink article should be taken with as much a pinch of salt as the mets version of events.

ASSASSINATED BY ANARCHISTS?
While the British state is showing less and less regard to international law and human rights, with increased murders of black men by police on the streets and in their custody, Undercover police in London are building such a record of extra-judicial killings that they increasingly resemble a Citizens Militia more than a democratic body which upholds the rule of law.

In responce to increased hostility from 2-faced bourgeois institutions, the first line of defence that Proletarian groups have chosen is that of human rights. Defending refugee, stateless peoples and working class peoples rights and those of travellers to a safe and secure home is a defence of the working classes in open revolt against capitalism.

We call on peoples from all classes to rally to proletarian interests at the level of defending the human rights of the proletariat. however we do not recognise ANY rights of the bourgeois and aristocratic classes over the proletariat and we call on all classes to go further than the borgeois terrain of human rights towards workers control of all work places.

We support SO19 Police workers call to strike action
but above that we support the calls for justice for the families of those murdered by SO19
We call on police workers to arrest their superiors who are involved in human rights abuses against the proletariat.

ARREST BLAIR THE PRIME MINISTER

ARREST BLAIR THE POLICE COMMISSIONER

When making comments on police investigations of murder, the public should be very careful about passing on information they know nothing about, unless of course they were witness to the events of 30 April 2005, in that case if they would like to put their name to paper the families Solicitor will be very interested in hearing from them. It is public knowledge that Azelle was never seen holding a gun at any time, yes he did have a criminal record, but that does not have anything to do with guns or drugs, and certainly does not warrant the DEATH SENTENCE, of which we do not have in this country.His death is not justified!
