VANDALISM OF POLICE MEMORIAL TRUST MEMORIAL TO DC STEPHEN OAKE

That this House expresses its revulsion and dismay at the recent destruction by vandals of the Police Memorial Trust granite memorial erected in Crumpsall, Manchester, in the memory of Detective Constable Stephen Oake of Poynton in the Macclesfield constituency, who was fatally stabbed by an al-Qaeda terrorist suspect whilst defending colleagues on operational duty with Greater Manchester Police during an anti-terror raid on a flat in Manchester on 14th January 2003; shares in the sense of distress and sadness felt by DC Stephen Oake's family and his many police colleagues, and friends in the village where he lived at this wanton vandalism; and calls on the authorities and the police to do all within their power quickly to apprehend the persons responsible for this mindless and disgraceful act of vandalism and to ensure that they are severely punished.
