A senior police officer admitted to deleting parts of his computer notes that purportedly quoted Deputy Assistant Commissioner Cressida Dick as saying de Menezes should be allowed on the train because he was "not carrying anything." The surveillance officer said he removed some information from his notes because they "gave a totally false impression."
He disclosed his actions at the inquest, sparking an investigation by the IPCC. The inquest was told the deleted line read: "CD – can run on to Tube as not carrying anything. Persuaded by U/I [unidentified] male amongst management." He went on to disclose that he was in a hurry and may have deleted more than just that line.
