Hi,
like I wrote, I’m going to need a bit of time to think this through.
There is also the issue with the psd wanting an answer before Christmas
regarding the letter I asked the ipcc about
in the e-mail from 5/12:
‘ found that I had to contact you again, since I haven’t heard anything from
Mr. Gibbs, and in the meantime, I’ve recieved one letter from the Merseyside
Police Complaints Investigation Bureau,
from 03/12 (it also says that they sent a letter on 23/11, but I can’t see
that I have recieved
that letter).’.
That I sent Joanne Fitzgerald at the ipcc.
It’s the letter from the Merseyside Police Complaints Investigation Bureau,
that I’m also wondering about now,
since they needed an answer before Christmas.
And I haven’t heard anything back from the ipcc regarding this, even I sent
the e-mail on 5/12.
So now this is to late already, to send a letter or do anything, since the
police needed a reply before Christmas,
and the ipcc have yet to get back to me regarding this.
So I was wondering what has been going on regarding this.
Thank you very much in advance for your reply!
Yours sincerely,
Erik Ribsskog
