Shot Brazilian 'did not jump barrier and run'
Telegraph | News | Shot Brazilian 'did not jump barrier and run':
"The Brazilian electrician shot dead by police on the London Underground last month was being restrained when he was killed by officers from Scotland Yard's firearms unit, according to documents leaked last night.
.....................
Documents and photographs leaked to ITV News also confirmed that Mr de Menezes did not run from the police, as had been reported, had used his Tube pass to enter the station, rather than vault the barrier, and had taken a seat on the train before being grabbed by an officer.
He was wearing a light denim jacket and not as previously reported a padded coat which could have concealed explosives.
... the latest disclosures will cast fresh light on Sir Ian's insistence that the death was the tragic consequence of a legitimate operation."
