| Birmingham riot deaths: Police officer 'reckless' | Birmingham riot deaths: Police officer 'reckless' |
| (34 minutes later) | |
| A police officer who investigated the deaths of three men in Birmingham during the 2011 riots would have had a case to answer for gross misconduct. | |
| The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) found Det Insp Khalid Kiyani was "reckless" in his conduct regarding the investigation. | |
| Det Insp Kiyani would have faced police disciplinary procedures had he not retired from the force in October 2012. | |
| The IPCC found no case to answer for misconduct against Det Ch Insp Tagg. | |
| Det Ch Insp Anthony Tagg was the senior investigating officer in the murder case. | |
| On 10 August 2011 three men, Haroon Jahan, 20, and brothers Shazad Ali, 30, and Abdul Musavir, 31, died after being hit by a car in Winson Green, Birmingham. | |
| Eight men were subsequently charged with their murder and a trial commenced on 19 April 2012 at Birmingham Crown Court. | |
| The trial heard on 11 August 2011 Det Insp Kiyani offered immunity from prosecution in exchange for witness statements at a public meeting. | |
| He alleged Det Ch Insp Tagg had authorised the promise of immunity, which Det Ch Insp Tagg denied, the IPCC report said. | |
| In July 2012 the eight men accused of murder were found not guilty by a jury. |
