G4S Staff To Be Charged Over Deportation Death

Three G4S detainee custody officers are to be charged with manslaughter over the death of a man who was being deported.

Colin Kaler, Terrence Hughes and Stuart Tribelnig are to be charged in connection with the death of Jimmy Mubenga, the Crown Prosecution Service said.

A statement from the three men's solicitor said they would be "vigorously denying these charges in court".

Mr Mubenga died in October 2010 after being restrained on board a British Airways flight to Angola while he was being deported.

Almost two years later prosecutors decided that no charges should be brought over his death.

But the case was reopened after an inquest into Mr Mubenga's death recorded a verdict of unlawful killing.

Kaler, Hughes and Tribelnig are due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on April 7.

G4S will not face charges of corporate manslaughter after the CPS decided there was insufficient evidence for such a prosecution.

Fighting against getting on the plane.

Doesnt alter the fact that they held him down for 30 minutes until he stopped breathing.

Not the first one to die under restraint from these plastic prison guards.

You cant run the CJS for profit

The reason this is in the news is because he was doing something wrong, as with all the ones we hear about - women getting slapped or thrown in the cells then crying about it.

Do we pander to the criminals, or enforce our laws?

996 out of 1000 people wouldn't be committing criminal acts like this guy.

2 out of 1000 wouldn't have resisted as much as this guy.

1 out of 1000 wouldn't have stopped breathing and died like this guy.

He's the 1 out of 1000 who died. Terrible shame - he's a criminal!
