Firearms officer not guilty of Chris Kaba murder

Wonder who that was...

Incredible. I wonder, given the fact that it's now a matter of public record that Kaba was a dangerous criminal and a key figure in one of London's most dangerous gangs, will Khan feel suitably embarrassed about that message?

Yes I know, hope springs eternal. 

"one of their guys shot one our guys" is the only concern


criminal syndicate politics.

These revelations come as a surprise to the BBC news team. From the BBC website:" Mr Kaba, a construction worker who was due to become a father.."  Not exactly Bob The Builder was he?

From Wiki

Following the trial, it was revealed that Kaba was the alleged gunman in a nightclub shooting 6 days before his death[8], had been issued with a 28-day domestic violence protection order[9], which barred him from contacting the mother of his unborn child[10], and that his family had tried to prevent publication of this information.[11]

Background

Chris Kaba was a core member of a notorious south London gang and accused of being the gunman in an alleged bid to murder a rival in a nightclub shooting days before he was killed.[12] He had convictions dating back to when he was aged 13 for offences including stabbing with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, a knife-enabled gang assault when the victim was stabbed and had his arm broken, and two other knife offences.[13]

In 2015, when he was 17, Kaba was convicted of affray and possession of an offensive weapon over an incident in which a revolver-style handgun was recovered nearby, but the weapon wasn't linked to him and he was never charged in connection with it.[14][15]

Kaba had been charged in 2018 with possessing an imitation firearm with intent to cause fear of violence,[16] in relation to an incident on 30 December 2017.[3] He was found guilty at Snaresbrook Crown Court in January 2019, and sentenced to four years in a Young Offenders Institute.[3] He was released in 2020.[3]

In August 2020 Kaba was handed a five-month prison sentence for failing to stop and possession of a knife, which was discarded from a vehicle.[17]

In the months following his death, six men were charged with conspiring with Kaba to commit murder and grievous bodily harm; the charges relate to a shooting which took place in Tower Hamlets on 30 August 2022, days before Kaba's death.[18][19]

Kaba was a member of 67, a Brixton Hill-based drill rap group which one of its members says has been called a criminal gang by the police.[20][21] He was known by his stagename Madix or Mad Itch.

Ref the deceased criminal known as Chris Kaba; it's just been revealed that in court his defence described him as a loving family man who was looking forward to being a father. Now reporting restrictions have been lifted the truth can be told. He was in fact the subject of a restraining order for threatening behaviour, which barred him from going anywhere near his pregnant ex girlfriend. His defence council obviously knew this, but told the jury he was a loving family man. Fortunately the jury saw through these lies.

Of his own demise
