Crowded Center Blocked Communications

The British government continues its public inquest into the shooting death of a man who intelligence forces had followed from a home of suspected terrorists. The surveillance operation took place after the July 2005 terrorist bombings in London. The man was followed into The Underground, boarded a train, and was then confronted and killed by an anti-terrorist team. It turned out the victim had no connection to the terrorist attacks. The surveillance was coordinated from Room 1600 at Scotland Yard, and testimony is that it was crowded with non-essential personnel, making radio communications impossible to hear, leading to confusion and mis-communications.
