We remember Jean Charles de Menezes
7th January 1978 - 22 July 2005

Dear Friends

This Sunday is the 6 month commemoration of the death of Jean Charles De Menezes at Stockwell Tube. It looks likely, just as in every other case of the police killing innocent civilians over the last twenty years, that no-one will be brought to justice. The family of Jean Charles is asking for us all to join them on Sunday at Stockwell Tube at 1pm to show our solidarity with them in demanding justice for Jean. They want to show the world, the government, the police and the media that what happened to Jean has not been forgotten. We need to show your support to these wonderful and strong people who have endured so much over the last six months.

This is made all the more important by the fact that tomorrow the Independent Police Complaints Commission will pass the report of their investigation to the Crown Prosecution Service. The IPCC were meant to keep the family up-to-date with progress in the investigation and to share with them the broad contents of their final report. Yet they have answered almost none of the families questions in previous meetings and the family now learns that they are not going to be told anything about the contents of the final report. What makes this so outrageous is that the police have been briefed what is in the report and that everyday the family has to read leaks from the report in the press.

Justice for Jean

Six months on, we still remember
No More Cover up
We demand Justice

Commemoration of the 6 month anniversary
of the shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes
Sunday 22nd January, 1pm
Stockwell Tube Station
London

On the 22nd July 2005, Jean Charles de Menezes was killed by police at Stockwell tube station. He was shot 8 times, 7 times in the head. Following his death, the police mislead Jean Charles' family and the public about his death.

Six months later, the IPCC has finished its report on the killing and are handing the report to the police – but keeping it secret from the family.

The family asks that you join them to call for no more cover up, for the IPCC report to be made public and for those responsible for Jean’s death to be brought to justice.
