The family of Chris Kaba has called for the immediate suspension of the Metropolitan police officer involved in his fatal shooting.
The 24-year-old, who was due to become a father for the first time, was shot dead by a firearms officer in Streatham, south London, on Monday night.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) has since launched a homicide investigation into his death, yet the Met is yet to confirm if any of those involved have been disciplined.
On Saturday, thousands of protesters marched through Whitehall demanding justice for Kaba.
The rapper Stormzy was among those to address the crowd, calling on people to “have stamina” in the campaign for justice.
Kaba was driving an Audi, which was reportedly rammed and boxed in by police on Monday night. He was said to have been killed by a single shot fired through the driver’s side of the windscreen of the car.
His family has called for the officer who fired the shot to face suspension.
After the opening of the IOPC homicide investigation, the family has also demanded the Met release video from body-worn cameras from the officers showing the moment that they shot him.
