Naomi Fulop, a spokesperson for Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice, said: “It’s deeply disappointing that they rejected all 20 witnesses that we put forward.”
Dr Saleyha Ahsan, with her father Ahsan-ul-Haq Chaudry, who died in December 2020 after he contracted Covid “We are people that will be able to put reality to the theory that Hallett is testing, that has got to happen, otherwise it’s just a farce.”without bereaved witnesses during this opening stage of public hearings.
Dr Ahsan added: “I’ve worked in conflict zones, I’ve had that feeling of ‘oh my goodness what are we going to do, this is terrible, we can’t deal with what’s coming through the door’, I actually had that, not in Syria or in Libya or in Palestine where I’ve worked, but here in London, and that was during the period of time that Boris Johnson and his Government were navigating Christmas parties and new year parties.
“He can try and blame it on other people, that’s up to him, but I don’t think it’s very convincing. It isn’t for me, and I think isn’t to most people.”
