Trust the Police?


Mumbai Police Quick_Responce_Team.JPG

MUMBAI POLICE:

Kasab's lawyer, Abbas Kazmi, says Kasab was beaten and thrashed by the police.

"Under this fear he recorded his so-called confession."

Mr Kazmi said that Kasab was illiterate and unsure of his date of birth, but was sure that he had been under the age of 17 at the time of the Mumbai the attacks.

THAI PROTESTS BY RED THAKSIN SUPPORTERS (Dousing the flames ):

"Images of protesters attacking Mr Abhisit’s car and torching buses hurt their credibility as peaceful pro-democracy activists.

"It also exposed Mr Thaksin as a demagogue who is ready to incite a revolt from his Dubai redoubt...

"The reds ... claim that the rioting was stoked by pro-government militia and plainclothes soldiers to discredit their movement.

"In the past, the army’s playbook has featured such tactics."

Comments on the Economist website (Dousing the flames ):

"Mass killings by the government are coming out, including the killing of two monks by the Army."

"Some soldiers shot into the air, some shot straight at the protesters and bodies were seen on video being loaded into small trucks."

"I spoke to friends of soldiers who were being told by said soldiers that up to 60 people had died.

"I also heard direct from an army officer that the two civilians supposedly killed by the Red Shirts were actually shot by the police.

"The Din Daeng action occurred very early and little media was present."

"Thai society has shifted to a money- and dara-worshipping, greedy and materialistic one and the countryside continues to be run by mafias, effectively."

Police incompetence and corruption?

At the
1919 Battle of George Square. 31 January 1919.

Sections of the the media can be very effective at revealing the faults of the police, the security services, and the criminal justice system, particularly in the UK.

1. The police officer who attacked Ian Tomlinson shortly before he died had still not been interviewed by the Independent Police Complaints Commission more than 48 hours after the Guardian revealed footage that showed him hitting the newspaper vendor with a baton and pushing him to the ground.

(Ian Tomlinson death: G20 riot officer in footage has not been interviewed)

This could suggest that the police officer in the mask had been ordered to kill or seriously injure someone.



2. Raids to foil an alleged Easter al-Qaeda bomb plot in the UK in April 2009, are yet to uncover any explosives or firearms, according to senior security sources.

Raids on 'bomb plotters' fail to unearth explosives

Chief Constable of Greater Manchester Peter Fahy said: "There is no particular threat against any particular location ... I would like to say I would have no hesitation, or any of my family, in using any of those locations that have been mentioned."

In other words, the Easter al Qaeda plot may have been devised by the security services to discredit Pakistan and to distract attention from the murder of Tomlinson; and the police forgot to plant some explosives on the patsies?


Baby P was tortured and killed.

3. On 9 April 2009, the media revealed that the police could have saved Baby P from being killed if they had not been incompetent and useless.

The Police were 'culpable in the Baby P case' .

An assault case against Baby P's mother was ‘left to drift’ for months

Meanwhile:

4. Are UK criminals being caught and dealt with?

According to Nick Davies in the Guardian, on 17 August 2005, "the system is bringing justice in only 3% of offences committed."

http://www.guardian.co.uk/criminaljustice/story/0,13733,1550555,00.html

In other words, the vast majority of criminals are getting away with it.

The few that do get dealt with are often the inadequate losers.

5. Are UK courts efficient?

According to Davies, in the Guardian, "courts continue to experience delays."

24% of prisoners are not delivered to court on time;

52% of civilian witnesses come to court and do not give evidence;

64% of prosecution witnesses come to court and do not give evidence.

Files of evidence provided by police to prosecutors are on time and up to quality in only 43% of cases;

and the preparation by prosecutors is effective in only 60% of cases.

6. In the UK, what happens to those who are found guilty?

According to Davies:

Forty-four per cent of fines are unpaid;

up to 40% of community punishments are unserved.

7. Can the police be trusted?

Police Corruption in UK is at "Third World Levels" according to a report in The Telegraph on 10/02/98.


(http://www.stopthedrugwar.org/chronicle/061/ukpolice.shtml)

The British Newspaper "The Telegraph" reported that it was in possession of a confidential document containing the minutes of a meeting organized by the National Criminal Intelligence Service (NCIS).

In attendance were "10 of Britain's most senior officers and policy makers."

The document states that "corrupt officers exist throughout the UK police service" and that the NCIS' intelligence director indicated during the meeting that "Corruption may have reached 'Level 2', the situation which occurs in some third world countries."

The document blames the drug trade and the vast amounts of cash inherent in the black market for the enormous level of corruption. It states, in part that "The enormous volume of money that is available to... drug importers and dealers means that very large sums can be offered to corrupt officers. Criminals are willing to pay to ensure their ability to operate."

8. Do the UK police kill people?

Simon Hattenstone, in the Guardian, 18 August 2005, wrote about the police:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/attackonlondon/comment/story/0,16141,1551418,00.html

"....there have been more than 1,000 deaths in police custody in Britain in the past 30 years - most involving restraint, either in the cells or during arrest - and many of these people have subsequently been demonised..."

9. The case of Ray Mallon:

November 20, 1996 - Ray Mallon becomes the new head of Middlesbrough CID and takes the extraordinary step of pledging to quit if he fails to slash the crime rate by 20 per cent.
http://www.thisisthenortheast.co.uk/the_north_east/news/lancet/140202_6.html

August 6, 1997 - Nine months into the job and his pledge to cut crime appears to be working as figures plummet towards the key 20 per cent mark.

November 24, 1998 - Det Supt Mallon is cleared of fiddling his expenses.

April 20, 1999 - Det Supt Mallon is cleared of wrongdoing in his relationship with the media.

July 9, 1999 - Calls are made for the police corruption inquiry to be wound up after it is revealed that some of the investigating officers are under investigation themselves. Ashok Kumar, MP for South Middlesbrough and East Cleveland, says the situation is turning into farce with public credibility in Cleveland Police now seriously at risk.

December 1, 1999 - Det Supt Mallon marks the second anniversary of his suspension with a scathing attack on the Police Complaints Authority which, he claims, smeared him. He predicts the investigation will end without criminal charges being laid against him, and he calls on Jack Straw to instigate a public inquiry so that the main players can be called to account.

February 10, 2000 - Det Supt Mallon acknowledges that he may never be allowed to return to policing, even if he is cleared of any criminal wrongdoing.

June 15, 2000 - MP Dari Taylor, member for Stockton South, claims Cleveland Police is losing public support.

June 20, 2000 - Crown Prosecution Service announces there will be no prosecution of Det Supt Mallon as there is insufficient evidence.

June 23, 2000 - Det Supt Mallon challenges his bosses to reinstate him.

August 8, 2000 - Det Supt Mallon makes a formal complaint to the Home Secretary that senior officers have conspired to pervert the course of justice.

Not Secret

Quick.

On 8 March 2009, the media published photographs of a top UK anti-terrorism policeman, Bob Quick, as he was heading to a meeting at 10 Downing Street.

Quick appears to be deliberately, or accidentally, showing off a document labeled "Secret".

The document reportedly suggests to us that there really are Pakistani al Qaeda 'terrorists' out there.

After the publication of these photos, the police allegedly felt they had to make immediate arrests of the Pakistanis they had been watching. The arrest operation was brought forward 12 hours.

Reportedly, the USA and its allies want to break up Pakistan. It is important for the public to be brainwashed into seeing Pakistanis as being bad, dangerous people.

On 8 March 2009, ten Pakistanis, with suspected links to al Qaeda (CIA), were arrested by a counter-terrorism unit in North West England.

The timing is interesting.

The UK police want to distract attention away from the killing of Ian Tomlinson at the G20 summit; and want to emphasise that the police are facing dangerous 'terrorist' enemies.

"I'm going to go way out on a limb here and suggest that this operation was carried out because Police felt the need to take the heat off of their comrades in the City of London Police Force." -[Deliberate?] 'Security leak' prompts arrests in suspected al Qaeda plot.

However, Quick has been sacked. (Terror blunder: police chief Bob Quick under pressure to resign)

Quick has been replaced by John Yates

Lord WEST did not get sacked.

In 1986, Captain Alan West of the British navy removed secret documents from the Ministry of Defence 'without permission', carried them in his coat pocket when they should have been in a security briefcase, and then lost the documents.

He 'failed to tell the MoD immediately of their loss'. (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2002/04/18/navy18.xml )

It is suspected that the navy wanted the secret documents, which were about naval cuts, to be lost, and then found by the media.

West got promoted.

From 1989 to 1992 West was in charge of Naval Intelligence.
In 1997 West was appointed Chief of Defence Intelligence.

The 9 11 attacks took place on 11 September 2001.
In 2002, West was promoted to become head of the navy as First Sea Lord.

In 2006, West became Chairman of the QinetiQ Defence Advisory Board. Qinetiq is a defence technology company.

Admiral Sir Alan West became Gordon Brown's security minister.

Lies and Innuendo

Craig Murray, former UK ambassador. Image found at: leninology.blogspot.com/2006/09/mancs-against...

On 8 April 2009, Craig Murray wrote about Lies and Innuendo in the Ian Tomlinson Case:

"I do not believe that there was no official footage of the police assault on Ian Tomlinson.

"Just as the security cameras in Stockwell station and on the train were 'Not working' in the Jean Charles De Menezes case, I accuse the Police of subverting the video evidence...

"Jean Charles De Menezes' character was slurred (illegal immigrant, drug addict - all untrue).

"The claim that Tomlinson died of a heart attack brought on by alcohol is pathetic...

"We ... need a radical reconstruction of a police force which thinks it can attack and kill members of the public with impunity, and of the legal framework in which they operate.

"The legal system has ruled in terms that police may kill people and then may lie about it in court...

"We have to sweep out the old order of corrupt politicians whose one guiding principle is to keep their own snouts in the trough: of City bankers who are multi-millionaires from their bubble scams and whose lifestyles and jobs the ordinary people are now supporting by a massive tax and debt burden, while nobody guarantees the jobs of those ordinary people who fund it all."

UK Police killed man to discredit G20 protests?

.







This man died.



He was attacked by the UK police.



Were the police trying to make the G20 protests unpopular with the public?







Guardian Video reveals G20 police assault on man who died









Witnesses tell of dogs, batons and police attack

Scene by scene: police assault footage

Ian Tomlinson's last movements



41 seconds of video that raises serious questions

Editorial: A case to answer

How police view of Ian Tomlinson death changed







"Prime Minister ‘Mengele’ Brown, you’ve spent my pension, seek to track and video record my life... Your legacy on our country is that you have made the very rivers of life we drink the same colour as your muddied name." - The Nazi state of Britain



1. According to The Guardian, 28 February 2009 (Government 'using fear to erode civil liberties'), a series of conferences across Britain have heard that "The government and the courts are collabarating in shaving away freedoms and pushing Britain to the brink of becoming a 'database' police state."



"Gilligan, of the Evening Standard, said the planned communications database would bring an end to privacy and with it 'an end of journalism'.



"He pointed out that the only arrest in the case of the illegal shooting to death by police of the Brazilian electrician Jean Charles de Menezes was that of a journalist who revealed that police statements were untrue."





Varney



2. On 28 February 2009, in the Independent, Rory Bremner wrote:



"The phrase 'police state' is an emotive one, but when the former HMRC chairman Sir David Varney, the head of the Orwellian-sounding 'transformational government' strategy – the project to share information across all databases – says the state will possess 'a deep truth about the citizen based on their behaviour, experiences, beliefs, needs or desires', and former Whitehall security co-ordinator Sir David Omand admits that 'finding out other people's secrets is going to involve breaking everyday moral rules', it is time to start the alarm bells ringing." - Rory Bremner: Our liberty is on the line. It's time to act



Sir David Omand was the first holder in 2002 of the post of UK Security and Intelligence Coordinator, exercising overall direction on behalf of the Prime Minister of the national counter-terrorism strategy and building national resilience (“homeland security”).



Omand



3. What to do about the problem in the UK?



Ideally, we should kick out all the politicians, police chiefs, judges and civil servants who support the police state.



That means kicking out around 95% of Labour Members of Parliament.



4. Can judges be kicked out?



In the USA, "Judges in Pennsylvania’s Luzerne County admitted sentencing thousands of children to jail in return for kickbacks from a prison-management company.



"Judges Mark Ciavarella and Michael Conahan received a commission for every day they sent a child to private juvenile detention centres run by Pennsylvania Child Care and a sister company.



"The pay-offs came to $2.6m over seven years...



"The judges are going to jail."



- Penning up children for cash The lowest of the low The Economist

A Labour politician who went astray.



5. Can civil servants be kicked out?



Yes. They are our servants.



On 9 November 2003, Richard Norton-Taylor, the Guardian's security affairs editor, wrote:



"What has already emerged ... is the existence of a dark, almost Jacobean, cabal at the core of the Blair administration.



"It is a group of powerful, unelected people few would have heard of were it not for the evidence given to Hutton: Sir David Manning, the prime minister's foreign policy adviser; Sir David Omand, his security coordinator; and John Scarlett, chairman of the joint intelligence committee..." (There is a dark cabal around Blair)



Sir David Omand was among those to decide that David Kelly should be pursued for talking to the media about the Government's dossier on Iraq's alleged WMD.[3]



The people with the power to kick out bad civil servants and bad judges are the people in government.



What can be done?



A. In England, the answer is to vote Liberal.



In Scotland the answer is to vote for the SNP.

In Wales and Northern Ireland, vote for independence.



B. The UK needs to bring in a Swiss-style referendum system.

If a certain number of people call for a referendum on some policy of the government, then a referendum would have to be held; and the result of the referendum would be binding.

Perhaps even prime ministers could be got rid of by referenda.



6. Switzerland is not perfect but it is peaceful and prosperous, and we can learn from it.



Switzerland is divided up into cantons and towns (communes).



In Switzerland, the central government (federal government) is not given too much power; the cantons and towns have a lot of power; referendums are held.



The central government controls foreign policy, defense, the railways and the mint.



If the central government brings in a new policy, a referendum can be held to vote it down.



There is a six-month period during which a referendum can be called by any person or group able to get 50,000 signatures on a petition.



A central government policy can be thrown out by a simple majority vote in a referendum.



The cantons and communes control economic policy, welfare policy, the police, education and so on. Each canton has its own parliament and constitution.



Switzerland spends a lot on welfare and education but manages to keep taxes relatively low. This is because there are no huge ministeries full of useless civil servants, or bureaucrats.



Cantons and large communes have referendums and 'initiatives'. An 'initiative' is when an ordinary citizen proposes a new policy or law.

Wright.



Jean Charles de Menezes was killed by agents of the UK state.



It could be argued that these agents of the state knew that de Menezes was an innocent man.



But, the De Menezes coroner has ruled out an unlawful killing verdict



"The jury at the inquest into the death of Jean Charles de Menezes will not be permitted to consider returning a verdict of unlawful killing, the coroner conducting the hearing said today.



"The coroner, former high court judge Sir Michael Wright, began summing up seven weeks of evidence by telling jurors they will only be allowed to return a verdict of lawful killing or an open verdict."



If the police and military had really thought de Menezes was a terrorist, they would have arrested him at his home (1) or as he walked to the bus stop (2) or after he got off the bus (3) and headed to the tube station.



At the inquest into the July 2005 murder of Jean Charles de Menezes at a London tube station, witnesses have stated that armed police fired on de Menezes without shouting any warning.



Menezes police 'gave no warning'



The police have consistently 'lied' about the murder of de Menezes, and there is a suspicion that the police and army knew de Menezes was an innocent man and that his killing was part of a 'strategy of terror' of the sort associated with Operation Gladio.



In the CIA-NATO's Operation Gladio, 'acts of terrorism were carried out in Italy' in order to keep certain parties in power.



Firearms officers had said de Menezes had moved towards them after they shouted warnings.



But Mrs de Menezes said outside the inquest: "None of the passengers heard the police give any warning or described Jean's actions as aggressive."







Rachel Wilson and her boyfriend Ralph Livock had been sitting opposite Mr de Menezes.



She told the inquest nothing had been said to alert her that the men were plain-clothes officers and that she initially thought they were just messing around.



Nicholas Hilliard QC, counsel to the inquest, asked her: "Specifically, did you ever hear anybody shout 'armed police'?"



Ms Wilson answered: "If I had heard that, I would have thought they were police, so no."



Mr Livock had told the inquest that their train was held up for longer than usual when four casually-dressed men with guns got on board.



Mr Hilliard asked: "Had you heard anything said about police?"



Mr Livock replied: "No, certainly not.



"I remember that specifically because one of the conversations that Rachel and I had afterwards was that we had no idea whether these were police, whether they were terrorists, whether they were somebody else.



"The thing that made me realise it wasn't a group of lads playing around or something else happening was when the first shot was fired."



De menezes



Mr Livock described Mr de Menezes' reactions when an officer pointed a pistol at his head.



"He looked as if he was expecting somebody to say something but he didn't look frightened," said Mr Livock.



If the police and military had really thought de Menezes was a terrorist, they would have arrested him at his home or as he walked to the bus stop or after he got off the bus and headed to the tube station.



It is believed by some that a secretive government agency was behind the London Bombings.

Operation Northwoods was a Pentagon plan to kill innocent civilians in acts of terror.



NATO's Operation Gladio involved acts of false flag terror in Europe.



There has been speculation that all the recent terror incidents in Britain are part of a 'strategy of tension' similar to that which brought terror to Greece, Italy and Turkey in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.



If elements of the security services could catch and kill someone on the London Underground and then claim that this person was a Moslem terrorist, this would advance the fascist agenda.



It would support the idea that 9 11, the Bali Bombs, the Madrid Bombs and the London Bombs were the work of Moslem terrorists, rather than the work of the security services, using double agents and patsies.



When agents of the UK government shot dead the innocent Brazilian Jean Charles de Menezes, the police claimed that they had shot a dangerous terrorist.



It looks as if there were (at least) two groups who were involved in the pursuit of Jean Charles de Menezes:



1. The police

2. A shadowy military group



Senior sources in the Metropolitan Police told The Observer (21 August 2005) that



1. their surveillance officers felt that de Menezes was not about to detonate a bomb,

2. was not armed

3. and was not acting suspiciously.



http://observer.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,6903,1553440,00.html



A police source said: 'There is no way those three guys would have been on the train carriage with him [de Menezes] if they believed he was carrying a bomb. Nothing he did gave the surveillance team the impression that he was carrying a device.'







It was only when they were joined by 'armed officers' that things changed.



The Sunday Herald, which often has the best sources on security matters, tells us about the Special Reconnaissance Regiment (SRR).



http://www.sundayherald.com/51372 / AN INNOCENT MAN SHOT DEAD ON THE LONDON TUBE BY POLICE . . .SINCE ...



The Sunday Herald, 21 August 2005, tells us about the monitoring of the flat in Scotia Road, Tulse Hill, in south London.



The address was said to be linked to alleged bomber Hussein Osman.( Hussain Osman - arrested in Rome )



Among the surveillance team in Scotia Road was a soldier from a new “special forces” regiment -the Special Reconnaissance Regiment (SRR).



James Cusick, in the Sunday Herald, wrote:



"According to security sources, SRR personnel were involved in the tailing operation that saw de Menezes leave the block of flats, board a bus, and then enter the tube station at Stockwell. SRR personnel are also believed to have been on the tube train when he was shot.



"The SRR soldier at Scotia Road (given the codename Tango 10) used equipment which sent realtime pictures of all who came and went from the flats. Those receiving the pictures could check them against footage of who they were looking for. One security source said: 'In this kind of operation you never leave. You need to pee: you use a bottle; if there’s no bottle, tough. You never leave.'



"The police account says there is no footage of de Menezes leaving because the SRR soldier had to relieve himself. The police account says he sent out a message calling the man who left [de Menezes] an 'ICI' – a white northern European...



"Hussein Osman – arrested in Rome and scheduled for deportation to the UK within the next two months – was not an ICI. The CCTV footage of Osman the police held showed an Asian/north African male.



"De Menezes took a bus to Stockwell tube station, stopping briefly at Brixton...



"It is also understood that the senior police officer in charge of the operation, Commander Cressida Dick, had ordered de Menezes at this stage to be detained before he went into the tube station and that he should be alive...



"So why was de Menezes not stopped before the station?"



Apparently, both members of the police and the mysterious second group were on the train with de Menezes. It would appear that members of the mysterious second group murdered de Menezes.



"A security agency source contacted by the Sunday Herald said: 'This take-out is the signature of a special forces operation. It is not the way the police usually do things.... this has special forces written all over it.'



The Sunday Herald points out:



"The initial post-mortem report into de Menezes’s death states the young Brazilian had 'vaulted over the ticket barrier'.



"A post-mortem report does not take its information from media reports. The police are contacted directly and written accounts are delivered. Details of the barrier being “vaulted” therefore came from the police. Why?



"And why at 4pm – five hours after the shooting – when the police would have known they had not killed Hussein Osman but a young Brazilian, did Sir Ian hold a press conference and insist that the shooting was 'directly linked' to the anti-terrorist operation?"

http://observer.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,6903,1553440,00.html



From the Observer, 21 August 2005:



"Questions have been raised about the accuracy of the police intelligence that led to the raid on the block of flats occupied by de Menezes. It was initially suggested that the flat was connected to the man known as Hussein Osman, who was arrested in Italy.



"On the Saturday after the shooting, officers raided the flat in a high-profile operation watched by the world's media. As a result, a man, identified only as 'C', was arrested 'on suspicion of the commission, instigation or preparation of acts of terrorism'. But he was released on 30 July with no charge, raising the possibility that the flats had no connection with the bombings."







Was there a plot to fool the public?

(http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/anthonylarkin.html / http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4706787.stm)



A passenger on the train, Anthony Larkin, told BBC News the man appeared to be wearing a "bomb belt with wires coming out".The 'man' was Brazilian Jean Charles de Menezes, who was shot by government agents.



http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4706913.stm



Commuter Anthony Larkin, who was also on the train at Stockwell station, told 5 Live he saw police chasing a man.



"I saw these police officers in uniform and out of uniform shouting 'get down, get down', and I saw this guy who appeared to have a bomb belt and wires coming out and people were panicking and I heard two shots being fired."

Did elements of the security services hope to fool the public into thinking that the person who was shot was one of the 'bombers' such as Hussain Osman - arrested in Rome .



Hussein Osman, who also uses the name Hamdi Isaac, moved to Rome by Eurostar five days after the 21 July attacks in London. His passport was not checked by the British at Waterloo.

Operation Gladio and the 'strategy of tension' in Italy beginning in 1969.



Operation Gladio was organised by 'fascists' within the security services of the West.



Reportedly, the idea was to kill innocent people and then blame this on others.



Gladio was about keeping the right-wing elite in power.



Gladio agent Vincenzo Vinciguerra stated, in sworn testimony:



'You had to attack civilians, the people, women, children, innocent people, unknown people far removed from any political game. The reason was quite simple: to force ... the public to turn to the state to ask for greater security.'



Italian Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti revealed the existence of Gladio in 1991.



Parliamentary investigations in Italy, Switzerland and Belgium have given us a little of the truth.

The book "NATO's Secret Armies: Operation Gladio and Terrorism in Western Europe," by Daniele Ganser documents some of what we know so far.



Run by fascist elements in NATO and Washington, right-wing militias carried out acts of terrorism and electoral subversion in states such as Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Turkey and West Germany.



Gladio was the name used in Italy. In Austria the name was Schwert, Belgium -Sdra 8, Britain - Stay Behind, France - Glaive, Greece -Operation Sheepskin, Holland, Sweden -Sveaborg, Switzerland -P26 and Turkey -Special War Department.

A Pentagon document, Field Manual FM 30-31B, details the methods for launching terrorist attacks.85 people were killed on August 2, 1980 in the bombing of the Bologna train station.



According to the Italian Senate, after its investigation in 2000, the bombers were later discovered to be "men inside Italian state institutions and ... men linked to the structures of United States intelligence."



The Bologna bomb was part of Gladio's " strategy of tension" - fomenting fear to keep populations in thrall to "strong leaders" who will protect the nation from the ever-present terrorist threat.



The beginning of the 'strategy of tension' in Italy came in Dec. 12, 1969 when a bomb exploded inside the Banca Nazionale dell' Agricoltura in Milan's Piazza Fontana. 16 people were killed and 58 wounded.
