LISTEN:Police officers have slammed the BBC for its 'utter lack of balance' in a new Panorama documentary about the fatal shooting of violent gang member Chris Kaba .
The documentary featured an interview with Kaba's grieving parents, who said officers should have arrested their son rather than shooting him dead. Police footage shows that officers repeatedly ordered the gang member to get out of his car. 'Police officers will be stunned - but perhaps not surprised - about the utter lack of balance in the BBC Panorama documentary aired last night over the death of Chris Kaba,' he said.
Kaba himself had shot a gang rival in both legs at the Oval Space nightclub in Tower Hamlets on August 30, 2022. He told the programme: 'A forensic examination had been done. We were satisfied that no non-police firearms had been recovered. I remember having an exchange with a senior officer from the Met where they were questioning, ''Are you certain that the vehicle has been sweeped thoroughly enough?''
Kaba's rap name was 'Mad Itch' or 'Itch' and he released drill rap songs bragging about gunning down rivals and selling drugs. A still from one of his videos is pictured above, for the song Numerous Times Read MoreEXCLUSIVE Chris Kaba was one of London's most feared gangsters who shot rival at nightclub He said: 'People have to lose their parents. This is life - you are born, you have your parents, they die. You can understand it, you can explain. But a parent who loses a son, especially at that age... for me, life doesn't have any meaning.'
'We are now fully aware of the extreme levels of violence which surrounded Mr Kaba and his fellow gang thugs. 'We then discover that Chris Kaba was a key member of one of the most dangerous gangs in London and members of that enterprise have placed a £10,000 bounty on Sgt Blake's life. Had he not been killed, Kaba would have stood trial at the Old Bailey for the attempted murder of Mr Malutshi who miraculously survived the nightclub shooting on August 30, 2022.
