Police Watchdog Defends Shooting Decision in Chris Kaba Case Amid Criticism

Sal Naseem, who led the investigation into the police shooting of Chris Kaba, has defended the decision not to pursue murder charges against firearms officer Sgt. Martyn Blake, who was acquitted last month. Naseem expressed doubts about the justification for lethal force, asserting that Kaba did not pose a sufficient danger when shot. The incident, which sparked national protests and debates on police accountability, involved Kaba attempting to evade officers during a traffic stop. The case continues to raise questions about police protocols and the circumstances leading to the fatal encounter, with an inquest expected next year.
