Charges for police in Tube shooting

Police officers are facing criminal charges over allegations that they tampered with evidence after shooting dead an innocent Brazilian at a London Underground station, The Independent on Sunday can reveal.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) report reveals that a log was changed so that it read: “And it was not Osman” instead of “it was Osman”. This meant that surveillance officers could claim the marksmen had shot dead the wrong man despite having been warned that he was not who they had thought.
Even with that, the ‘marksmen’ (a misnomer if there ever was one) themselves have been cleared of wrongdoing. That’s right, they knocked an unarmed unthreatening man to the ground, shot him repeatedly in the head, yet somehow this is ok. Me, I think they’re all murderers. What we have here is one gang of thugs trying to blame another gang for crimes they are both responsible for.
