He was taken to Heathrow police station where he was charged with being a 'prohibited person' (it is alleged that he had been banned from airport property) and then detained in a cell. He was, according to police, seen by a Forensic Medical Examiner on at least three occasions and deemed fit for detention. However, the following day, officers called an ambulance at 7.00 am after he was found collapsed in his cell. He was taken to Hillingdon hospital where he was pronounced dead. The Police Complaints Authority and the Directorate of Professional Standards are investigating his death.

Adel Muftah El-Hage, 29,16/3/03, Pr, Found electrocuted at Woodhill (category A) prison. Adel, a Libyan, was on remand after being arrested and charged in February 2003 with the murder of his wife, Salma Abusedra. At pre-trial hearings he had begged the judge to send him to Saudi Arabia so that he could face the death penalty, but had been refused.

a lot of the people where highly vulnerable/mentally unstable

there are specific procedures for category high risk persons, its cool if no one gave a f*ck at the time and the result was a dead body, but the total absence of prosecutions is sh*t

look how many resulted in 'inquest verdict unknown'
