We’ll continue fight for justice, says family
A statement read by solicitor Harriet Wistrich on behalf of the family, lawyers and campaigners said the police defence team had descended into the gutter.
She said: “The family are pleased that these proceedings have come to a conclusion and look forward to being able to effectively participate in the inquest that must now follow”, adding that “they ask why it was necessary for the police to plead not guilty in the first place, when evidence of catastrophic failings were so overwhelming”.
