The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) has confirmed that the Metropolitan Police officer who shot and killed Chris Kaba will no longer face disciplinary proceedings.
Following a decision in January to pause gross misconduct proceedings against the officer, the disciplinary proceedings against the officer have now ceased.

IOPC Director of Engagement Amanda Rowe said: “Our thoughts remain with Chris Kaba’s family and friends and everyone impacted by his death.
“We are acutely aware of the impact of proceedings for everyone involved in this case and have always sought to avoid any unnecessary delays, however it was right that we paused progressing disciplinary proceedings until the legislation change came into effect and its impact was clear.
“Having considered both our policy and the representations from the Kaba family and the officer, we have today notified them of our decision to withdraw disciplinary proceedings.”
