On 2 May, an inquest jury found unanimously that Ian Tomlinson had been “unlawfully killed” by a police officer during the G20 protests in April 2009. They said that “excessive and unreasonable” force had caused death by internal abdominal bleeding. The director of public prosecutions, Keir Starmer, said he would review his previous decision not to prosecute the officer in question, Simon Haywood.
