Charity said that new “Tsar 10” (T10) Electro-shock weapon makes a carriage Set of new risks, with capacity for severe unexpected injuries, especially among children. It also highlighted the ability of misuse against “police disparity and background of poor accountability”.
Warning comes As the biggest force of the UK has once again got involved in the controversy after being released. BBC Panorama documentary.
Met is facing allegations of racism, misunderstanding and force misuse of the force at a police station in London, which was shot secretly to make aggressive comments and to roast about using violence.
In view of the footage, Amnesty said that the use of tussar to strengthen the first rules without giving the police “10-shot super tasar” really enhances “fundamental safety concerns” to limit the conditions of life-threatening.
The government on Friday announced that the police in England and Wales will be able to use the new Tacery 10 models of Exon, saying that the device is capable of setting fire to a longer distance and 10 singles probes at a faster speed, now with the authorities, it is now able to choose with the authorities where each has been removed.
Amnesty described the probe as long and faster than the previous model, in which the thorny spikes were removed with a large force. It argued that more powerful barbes increase the possibility of serious injuries, especially if they attack sensitive areas such as face or eyes, increase special concerns for children.
However, HOme office Emphasize that the security mechanism has been improved, including the introduction of a hearing warning, and that the device is subject to “rigid investigation, independent testing and medical assessment”.
However, despite being a member of the Independent Advisory Group for the National Police Chiefs Council (NPCC), on Tasers, Amnesty’s policing expert, Oliver Pheley-Sprag, claimed that neither he nor other members of the group were able to give details of testing, evaluation or medical evidence prepared before the house office announcement.
Policing Minister Sarah Jones described Teser 10 as a “safe option”, but Mr. Phele-Sprag asked the “misleading”.
He said: “A weapon that can set fire ten times carries out the actual risk of overweight and severe injury, yet the independent advisory group is not allowed to see safety evidence. When there is a very low point for an investigation, there is a very low point when it is deprived of access to very documents, it needs to be investigated.
“Very long, rapid firing barbes increase the possibility of severe unexpected injuries, especially with children with risk, including facial or eye injuries.”
But Blair Gibbs, Director of the Police Foundation, the UK’s policing think tank, argued that the authorities should be able to use the latest taser equipment, even call for training to speed up their deployment.
He said: “We have strict and well -established security assessments for approved policing tools such as tasar. As new models are developed, new reviews are made by home scientists, and this latest device has been properly tested.
“Despite the large -scale unarmed policing tradition of Britain, it is right for more officials to reach the latest Taser equipment in response roles so that they can protect the public and other authorities. Now it is necessary that we have the best training and support so that the force can deploy new equipment quickly and they can be used responsibly.”
However, Amnesty highlighted the “disturbing records of the police’s misconduct Teser”, including people from minority ethnic communities and inconsistently targeting people in mental health crisis.
Latest home office data showed that black people were eight times more likely than white people that they were experiencing a tasar or discharged on them. Amnesty is calling for immediate review of official guidance on the use of police tosser.
Shri Phele-Sprag said: “Against this backdrop of misuse and over-use, a comprehensive review of official guidance on police tasar use is now fully necessary. This review must be a priority and to ensure that it should be treated with urgency that tazers are only used only in life-threatening conditions.”
According to the Alex Love in Exon, the Regional Director of the UK and Ireland, around 20 police forces have already signed up for new equipment.
He said: “Tacery is an important part of the technology toolkit with a technology tools supported by a 10-emperor VR training supported by the-body-wier video and real-time digital evidence management that will help the police to give the government on the mission of safe roads.”
The policing minister said: “This new tool supported by strong testing will help our police forces and properly trained officers to deal with crime more effectively while maintaining public confidence and accountability, which is important for our plan for change.”
Sir Andy Marsh, Chief Constable Sir Andy Marsh, CEO of College of Policing, called the new device “invaluable tool”.
He said: “Our updated guidance was developed in consultation with experts and tested in real -world landscapes. Taser 10 is about to use the effective use of our police officers and fulfill our duties to protect the public from damage, while using the minimum amount.
“New guidance and training of the college of policing will ensure that the authorities are not only prepared for the highest possible standards, but also that they are standard transparent. It will help create public beliefs and confidence and ensure that the authorities are held for high professional standards, proud to maintain service.”
A spokesperson of the home office said: “Taser 10 is subject to rigorous investigation, independent testing and medical assessment, with a technical test conducted by an independent testing house and to deal with the user made by the College of Policing to ensure that the device can be fitted for purpose and safely, accurately and with confidence.”
