A jury will have to determine exactly what happened before he was shot on the M62
Yassar Yaqub, 28, was the front seat passenger in one of two cars travelling in convoy on the M62 when four unmarked police vehicles surrounded them at junction 24 in Huddersfield.
Giving his summary to the jury, the Recorder of Leeds, Judge Guy Kearl KC, said Mr Yaqub was the passenger in an Audi A4 being driven by Mohsin Amin. Jurors heard that as the Audi and VW left the M62 at junction 24, known as Ainley Top, the four police cars"boxed them in" and came to a stop. "What is clear is that officer B39 fired his gun three times at Yassar Yaqub, who was seated in the front passenger seat of the Audi."
