Jury verdict highlights Met police failures before killing of Jeroen Ensink by Femi Nandap
An inquest jury has criticised police failings over the killing of the academic Dr Jeroen Ensink, who was stabbed by a stranger suffering from psychosis as he posted cards announcing the birth of his daughter.
Returning a narrative verdict of unlawful killing, the jury highlighted failures and inadequacies by Metropolitan police officers, who had arrested Femi Nandap, then 23, for possession of a knife seven months before the Nigerian student stabbed Ensink, in December 2015.
