Liverpool: "those responsible must be held accountable for illegal killings and 96 a cover-up of 27 years"
London-British police force accused of covering up the mistakes that led to the deaths of 96 Liverpool supporters at Hillsborough football stadium in 1989 was suspended on Wednesday, and lawmakers asked for the opening of proceedings.
The suspension of Chief Constable David Crompton, of the South Yorkshire, occurred a day after a jury concluded that fans, who died in an overcrowded Stadium enclosures located in Sheffield, were victims of British law calls ' wrongful death ', and the police admitted to having committed catastrophic errors.
"Those responsible must be held accountable for illegal killings and 96 a cover-up of 27 years," said Andy Burnham, spokesman for internal affairs of the opposition labour party, has long involved in the campaign "justice for the 96".
The Hillsborough tragedy changed the English football. Stands in the form of steps and metal fences around the lawns have been replaced by more modern arenas with chairs and enhanced security.
But the families of the victims and the survivors were forced to fight for decades to reverse the original conclusions, that the deaths were accidental, and initial police statements that drunken Liverpool fans without tickets broke into overcrowded sectors.
The jury cleared the fans, and David Duckenfield, the police commander in charge of security for the match, admitted that he lied when he said that fans had forced the opening of a gate, confessing that his inability to close a tunnel was the direct causeof the loss of life.
