7:37Now PlayingJeff Pope, the writer/creator of a new Disney series dramatising the killing of Jean Charles de Menezes has spoken to Sky News.
De Menezes was wrongly identified as a terrorist suspect in 2005 just two weeks after 52 people were killed in the capital in a wave of attacks.
A spokesperson for the Met Police said: "The circumstances around his death, which came at a time of unprecedented terrorist threat to London, have been subject to numerous public inquiries, including two separate reports by the Independent Police Complaints Commission (now the IOPC), which examined all of the evidence surrounding his death and the actions of officers in the aftermath.
"The recommendations made by the IPCC were implemented immediately following these reports, and in the 19 years since this tragic incident, we continue to proactively improve our processes and policies wherever possible to keep our communities safe.
"No officer sets out on duty intent on ending a life. Our sole purpose is the complete opposite - the protection and preservation of life - and we have taken extensive action to address the causes of this tragedy."
