Neville Lawrence says Met police surrendered to son’s killers

Father speaks out on 30th anniversary of Stephen’s murder as research shows continuing stop and search inequality

Scotland Yard surrendered to the racist killers of Stephen Lawrence who are still walking free, his father has said, as he demanded police reopen their investigation and hunt them down.

Neville Lawrence said the police decision three years ago to close the investigation into the remaining gang members who escaped justice for the 1993 attack was made because black life was viewed as cheap.
