De Menezes 'only carrying a mobile'
Updated on 23 October 2008
A detective admitted that he did not see Jean Charles de Menezes carrying anything other than a mobile phone and a newspaper before he was shot dead by armed police.
But the policeman, identified by the code name Ivor, insisted he could not rule out the Brazilian being a suicide bomber intent on detonating his device on London's Tube system.
Ivor was the closest surveillance officer behind the 27-year-old electrician as he boarded a train at Stockwell Underground station in south London, the inquest into his death has heard.
