FOI reveals scores of racism complaints aimed at Camden police officers

The Ham and High report:

An award-winning actor who has accused police of “racially stereotyping” him is one of scores who have made similar complaints against Camden Police in recent years, the Ham&High can reveal.

Daniel Kaluuya, 24, a former pupil of St Aloysius College in Hornsey Lane, Highgate, is suing the Metropolitan Police over the actions of Camden officers who wrongly suspected him of being a drug dealer, it emerged this week.

The actor, who starred alongside Rowan Atkinson in the movie Johnny English Reborn and is known for his role in hit teen drama Skins, has lodged a claim with the High Court for up to £50,000 in damages, saying police were physically violent and that he was singled out because of his race.
