Jean Charles de Menezes Family Campaign Launch

Jean Charles de Menezes Family Campaign: The last month has been an extremely busy one for the family and friends of Jean. They returned from Brazil at the end of August and are now in the process of launching their campaign for justice. Their struggle for finding out the truth continues, with every day bringing more revelations about the conduct of the police both on the day and after Jean's killing. Your continued support is both needed and greatly appreciated. Thanks to all who have donated money, written to MPs, organised benefits, your kindness and efforts are very touching to the family of Jean Charles.

The website of the Family campaign is now up and running and will be updated and expanded in the coming weeks, please visit it at www.justice4jean.com for more information about the campaign.There will be 2 public events organised by the Jean Charles de Menezes Family Campaign to officially launch the campaign and determine the next steps.
