Thousands march to Downing Street to protest over deaths in police custody
The families involved have been bereaved by deaths in police and prison custody, and mental health settings. Picture date: Saturday October 29, 2022.

FAMILIES of loved ones killed in custody spoke out against “police inaccuracies” in the wake of their relatives’ deaths during a march to Downing Street on Saturday. 

The annual march, organised by the United Friends and Families Campaign, is held every October to demand justice and accountability for state-related deaths. 

Among those attending the event was the family of Chris Kaba, the 24-year-old who was shot and killed by police in Streatham Hill on September 5.
