Police death probe: march details announced
DETAILS have been released of a High Wycombe march by friends and family of a man who died after a police drugs search.
Residents concerned about the death of Habib Ullah, 39, are being invited to attend Saturday's event.
Mr Ullah encountered breathing difficulties after the car he was in was searched for drugs in Lee Court, Sharrow Vale, High Wycombe on July 3.
Mr Ullah - who had been restrained by police officers - was rushed to Wycombe Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
A package was removed from his windpipe and has been sent away for testing said the Independent Police Complaints Commission, which is investigating.
The time table for Saturday is:
11.30am-12pm - small group of family and friends to lay a wreath of flowers at the search scene in Sharrow Vale
12am - assemble at Green Street Youth and Community Centre, Desborough Street
12.30pm - start march down Desborough Road
12.40pm - reach Bridge St and turn into Oxford Road
12.50pm - onto Oxford St and pass Frogmoor and on to Queen Square
1.00pm - onto White Hart St and go through High St
1.10pm - turn right into Queen Victoria Road and on to police station in Queen Victoria Road
1.20pm - return up Queen Victoria Road and up Amersham Hill and left down Castle St
1.30pm - go down Church St for Rally in Frogmoor
2.30pm - rally ends
Organisers said they hoped to have a "debrief" with police following the event.
Officers from Thames Valley Police declined to attend a public meeting held last week.
This would have been "inappropriate" given the IPCC investigation, a letter from Supt Rob Angell read out at the meeting said.
