Gun-toting 'top boy' gangster...

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".

Campaigners backing Kaba's parents Prosper Kaba and Helen Lumuanganu urged protestors to take to the streets on Monday night and were yesterday demanding "justice" and alleging that racism was rife across the criminal justice have promised ramifications of this case remain widespread. system. They protests this weekend.

But hours later the full circumstances behind the case could finally be revealed after Mr Justice Goss removed the reporting restrictions he imposed on the trial.
