Coroners and Justice Bill

Proceeding contribution from Graham Allen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 November 2009. It occurred during Debate on bills on Coroners and Justice Bill.
Would the hon. Gentleman also say that deaths at the hands of state officials sometimes do not take place in public gunfights in broad daylight? They may take place in a cell out of the public eye, or when rendition or a severe form of interrogation such as waterboarding is taking place. Those cases are much harder to bring to public attention, so the safeguards need to be even tougher.
