Misconduct proceedings against Sgt Martyn Blake, the police officer who shot Chris Kaba, have been dropped, according to the police watchdog.

The watchdog said Sgt Blake will not face a misconduct panel. The decision means the officer will not be subject to that form of disciplinary hearing in relation to the incident.

Chris Kaba was shot by Sgt Blake, but the material supplied does not include further details about the circumstances of the shooting, the location, the date, or any additional findings behind the watchdog’s decision.

The latest position is that misconduct proceedings have been discontinued and no misconduct panel will take place for Sgt Blake.
