The partner of a police sergeant killed in a custody cell has said he was let down by the "shoddy and inadequate" performance of the Metropolitan Police.
Sgt Matiu Ratana, known as Matt, was murdered in September 2020 after officers failed to find a gun concealed on arrested man Louis De Zoysa.
Su Bushby, speaking after an inquest verdict of unlawful killing, said police failures left her "devastated".
"If people had done their job properly, Matt would still be alive today".
