was dragged unconscious into a Hull police station.
On 1st April 1998 Christopher Alder, an ex-paratrooper,
was dragged unconscious into a Hull police station.
Minutes later he died on the custody suite floor. This
investigation examines Christopher's death and whether
the case will continue to taint relations between the police
and the black community.
One to record if you don't catch it...
