Sgt Blake was cleared on Monday of murdering the gangster, who had a sickening record stretching back to childhood. The brave officer shot Kaba to prevent him ploughing a car into fellow officers.
But it can now be revealed Kaba was lauded as a "top boy" in the notorious South London 67 gang who brought terror to the capital and had opened fire on a rival drug dealer in a nightclub battle days before he was shot dead.
He died while attempting to ram a two-tonne car into police as he frantically attempted to avoid arrest.
His vehicle had been used in a gangland shooting the previous night. Kaba, 24, known as "Mad Itch", had served prison sentences for firearms offences and possessing weapons. He was deemed so important to associates that a £10,000 bounty remains on the head of the police marksman.
After a judge controversially removed Sgt Blake's anonymity the officer must now live in hiding.
But Kaba's family members have attempted to portray him as an "innocent father-to-be".
