'Vital questions'
The Muslim Council of Britain said Muslims were concerned about a possible "shoot to kill" policy.
Spokesman Inayat Bunglawala said: "There may well be reasons why the police felt it necessary to unload five shots into the man and shoot him dead, but they need to make those reasons clear.
"It's vital the police give a statement about what occurred and explain why the man was shot dead."
no they do not. the man ran, he was doing something he should not of been doing. there is no reason to run from the cops unless you are doing something WRONG. it is really that simple. that is the ONLY statement the cops need to give.
i do look forward to getting more info on this guy, but as for why the cops shot him dead, he was told to stand down, he ran, his dress and demenor(sp?) were enough to give the cops good reason to fear for their life and the life of the citizens around this man, so they shot him dead.
to "The Muslim Council of Britain" you want a reason, look in your back yard and clean out your trash and point out ALL of the terrorist in your mists, then you will have your reason plane an simple.
