Mystery of Police Informant Posters

Sinitta | 22.09.2008 14:13 | Culture | Other Press | Social Struggles | London | World

Police Informant posters went up all over Camden In July. The professionally done posters had the picture of a well known local character. The man's head was pictured on the body of a rat and the posters stated that "this man is paid police grass". They were posted up two at time all over Camden and close to Pentonville prison. This was published in the Islington and Camden Gazettes.

Does anyone know anything about who this man is?

sorry, but maybe im thick. ive searched the website and still can't find the article.
who was this 'well known' person? does he have a connection to a protest group?
please put up a photo, name, full url or even a "cut and paste". who says he is a grass? the police?
otherwise you simply create a climate of fear. nice one.

curious

A man has committed suicide, possibly as a result of these posters.
