There’s going to be a “presumption of anonymity” for armed police officers who become subject to criminal proceedings.

Earlier this week, Sergeant Martyn Blake was cleared of murder after he shot Chris Kaba in Streatham in 2022.

In another reform, officers found guilty of criminal offences will automatically be found to have committed gross misconduct.
