Sali Byberi, 29, died after he allegedly assaulted a police officer called to investigate ‘a disturbance’ last month. “When a person dies following police contact, it’s important that we carry out a thorough and independent investigation which will examine all of the circumstances surrounding this tragic incident. Juliet Spender, the lawyer at Irwin Mitchell supporting Sali’s family, said: “While it’s only right that a thorough investigation into what happened is held, Sali’s loved ones understandably have a number of concerns about the events that unfolded on the day he died. “We’re now supporting the family at this distressing time to help investigate the circumstances surrounding Sali’s death and provide them with the answers they deserve.”
