POLICE
CLEARED OVER DEATH IN CUSTODY
The family of a man who died in custody said yesterday that the acquittal of 10 officers charged over his death was "a travesty of justice". They were speaking after the last six officers facing trial were cleared by a jury.
Yesterday's acquittals mean that none of the 10 West Midlands police officers tried over the death of
Michael Powell, who died after he was detained outside his mother's home in the Lozells area of Birmingham in 2003, have been
convicted |
