Free holiday for shooting officer
A police officer involved in the fatal
shooting of an innocent Brazilian man
at a London Tube station has been given
a holiday paid for by Scotland Yard.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir
Ian Blair personally authorised the
break for the officer and his family.
Jean Charles de Menezes was shot eight
times at Stockwell on Friday after
fleeing three undercover officers who
had mistaken him for a suicide bomber.
The body of Mr Menezes, 27, is due to
be flown back to Brazil on Wednesday.
