ARMED cops from other forces will be drafted in to support the Met Police after <\/strong>firearms officers handed in their weapons in protest.<\/p>\n

Officers last week stood down from firearms duties at the treatment of a colleague charged with the murder of Chris Kaba.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The widespread action has left the capital with a \u201cskeleton\u201d armed police capability and alarmed senior\u00a0Met chiefs.<\/p>\n

A Met Police spokesperson said "a number of officers have taken the decision to step back from armed duties while they consider their position".<\/p>\n

They added: "To ensure that we can continue to keep the public safe and respond to any eventualities, from Saturday evening Met firearms officers will be supported by a limited number of armed officers from other UK forces."\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Defence has also agreed to a request to provide the Met with counterterrorism support should it be needed.<\/p>\n

Gun cops on the Met\u2019s MO19 firearms command began handing in their blue authorisation cards after their colleague, known as\u00a0Officer NX121, was charged on Thursday with murdering 24-year-old Mr Kaba.<\/p>\n

The dad-to-be\u00a0died from a single shot to the head\u00a0while behind the wheel of his Audi in Streatham, South London, on the night of 5 September last year.<\/p>\n

Mr Kaba\u2019s vehicle was boxed in by Armed Response Vehicles when it flagged up on an automatic number plate recognition system.<\/p>\n

Mr Kaba\u2019s death sparked anger in the black community and relatives and supporters, including rap star\u00a0Stormzy, marched on New Scotland Yard in protest.<\/p>\n

The CPS authorised the charge of murder following an investigation by the\u00a0Independent Office for Police Conduct.<\/p>\n

But colleagues of Officer NX121 believe he has been \u201csacrificed on the altar of political expediency.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Met\u2019s firearms command was heavily criticised in a report by Baroness Casey earlier this year into the culture and standards of the Met.<\/p>\n

It followed the scandals involving armed officers\u00a0Wayne Couzens, who kidnapped, raped and murdered\u00a0Sarah Everard, and serial rapist\u00a0David Carrick.<\/p>\n

Both worked on the Met\u2019s Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection command. \u00a0<\/p>\n
