Four police officers were guilty of the most serious neglect of duty over the death of ex-paratrooper Christopher Alder in 1998, a watchdog has ruled.
Humberside chief constable Tim Hollis apologised following the Independent Police Complaints Commission report.
Mr Alder, 37, who was black, choked at a Hull police station. His sister said after the report that those responsible had still not been held to account.
The Humberside Police Federation says the officers deeply dispute the report.
“The failure of the officers to explain to the IPCC their actions, including noises recorded on the video before and after Christopher’s arrival in the custody suite appears to have contributed to the IPCC view regarding unwitting racism,” he went on.
