Six of London’s Metropolitan Police could face charges for torturing suspects in a drugs raid. Unusually the allegations came from within the force itself.
The officers are accused of a form of ‘waterboarding’ when suspects’ heads were held down a toilet bowl and the toilet flushed. These people must be brought to justice the are not fit to serve in the British Police. Actions like this only undermine the law not strengthen it.
Independent investigators passed a file to prosecutors last Thursday. The alleged tortures took place on two raids at homes in Tottenham and Enfield, north London.
London's police in action - come on be honest who are the aggressors here?
This new millennium we have seen a total disregard for law by governments and government agencies everywhere. But notably the two governments that should have upheld human rights laws are the USA and United Kingdom who have both engaged in torture on an International level.
No excuses for these criminal cops but can we expect anything else when our leaders have abandoned all pretense of obeying International law?
