Hours after the officers involved in the killing of three men in Morvant on June 27th were placed on desk duty, the Police Complaints Authority- the independent body investigating the matter- has advised that they be suspended.

There are allegations that the killings of 27-year-old Israel Clinton, 44-year-old Noel Diamond and 43-year-old Joel Jacob, were in retaliation for the murder of PC Allen Moseley who was gunned down in Morvant earlier that day.
