The mother and sister of black equal rights activist Sasha Johnson who was shot in the head last summer have pledged to get justice and said she is a fighter who will recover to tell her own story.

Ms Johnson, who has two young sons, was hit by a bullet and left with catastrophic and permanent injuries when four masked men stormed into a party in Peckham, south-east London, in May 2021.
