Jean Charles de Menezes
Shot man not connected to bombing.
The man, who died at Stockwell Tube on Friday, has been named by police as Jean Charles de Menezes, 27. Mr Menezes, who was from the city of Gonzaga in Minas Gerais state, Brazil, had lived in London legally for at least three years and was employed as an electrician.
A Tragedy
Why was he being watched?
Why was he being followed?
Why did he run, why?
After the shooting The Muslim Council of Britain said Muslims were concerned about a possible "shoot to kill" policy.
Meanwhile Dr Azzam Tamimi from the Muslim Association of Britain told BBC News the police should review their procedures.
Dr Azzam Tamimi said
"Frankly it doesn't matter whether he is a Muslim or not, he is a human being.
"It is human lives that are being targeted whether by terrorists or whether in this case unfortunately, by people who are supposed to be chasing or catching the terrorists."
I think the Police are doing a super job, working as fast as they can, faster than the news can cope with - never seen before. We will have to wait to find out why Jean Charles was under surveillance. If I could turn back time I would to stop his death but I still agree with the "shoot to kill".
