Family of man who fell in Thames found out he was Tasered by seeing 'horrific' clip online

The family of a man who plunged into the Thames after he was Tasered repeatedly by Met Police claims they were not given the full story of how he died.

Oladeji Omishore's siblings Remi, Aisha and Kenny say they only found out their brother had been Tasered after seeing a viral video online.

Remi, the eldest of the four children, says that when their parents were informed of the incident by police, officers made it seem as if Oladeji had entered the water on his own “volition" and had omitted the fact two officers had made contact with him beforehand.
