A life has been taken. Therefore it was a poor plan.

Interesting that the "Eyewitness" Rahul Tandon, from Halifax, appears to be Rahul Tandon, BBC India correspondent.

Probably once associated with the BBC's "Cliff Richard" Early Warning Dept

In the grand scheme of things, what appears to be some dodgy drug dealer (from what I have gathered vaguely) is dead? Hardly news worthy IMHO.

Maybe it was the best plan available in the circumstances?

No plan is perfect.

That's an assumption. There is also the possibility that the life was such that it's taking leaves the gene pool and humanity in a better position. None of us know yet.

You're mental.

Does anyone have any real information or are you all just jumping to conclusions?

I've read all the articles and nowhere does it say what they were stopped for, wether the suspects were armed, if the Police met resistance - armed or unarmed. The articles literally say, Police stopped X in a pre-planned stop, someone got shot, it wasn't terrorism.

We know NOTHING yet people are still saying the Police were wrong and it was a poorly planned op? Get a grip!

so...

is the car going cheap then ?


also... assassination death squads.. great, welcome to china!

The reason I gave up being a firearms Officer was the thought a luniatic like you might be on an inquest jury.

There's always one on every thread like this. Just ignore him.

If it was the "assassination" that you first asserted, it seems to have been a good and well executed plan.

That is highly unlikely however. It is likely to have been a decision made in line with a developing situation which none of us understand, will be questioned formally, assessed and will be proven not to be an assisination at all.

Bradford Police 'death squad' being shot at by innocent member of the public.

From the pics it looks like the Merc E class is unmarked police, Audi and Scirocco drug dealers cars.

The Merc E class is GL10 XFE. Out of interest I tried to see which model it is as I didnt know the police used Mercs. However each way I've tried it says the reg doesnt exist?!?

Maybe you could pop down to the scene and tell them all how it should have been done then or failing that tell us being as you appear to be in possession of all of the facts surrounding this incident.

Take off your bacofoil hat you complete and utter fist.

I know exactly what you mean and probably would have handed my firearms authority in had I not suffered a permanent back injury which took me off the department.

Some folks on here seem to have failed the application process for village idiot.

I await the flimsy 'defence' of the criminals involved. You play with fire, you get burned.

As I said before, there must have been resistance put up by the others which is no commensurate with them likely being ordinary, innocent members of the public.

BBC said:

Several of those arrested required hospital treatment for injuries "not related to firearm discharge", the police spokesman said.

Don't assassinations tend to be hush-hush, deniable, undercover hard to prove operations?

I'd be very disappointed if HM Govt. had to rely on a bunch of uniformed armed policemen to carry out assassinations. Surely they should use MI5 for this sort of thing?

Man in question was involved in a shooting a few years ago but cleared
