In pictures: Menezes footage

An Old Bailey trial has been shown footage of Jean Charles de Menezes' final journey before he was shot by armed police after being wrongly suspected of being a suicide bomber.

The Brazilian, marked as "JC", left a bus and then got back on minutes later, just before being killed in Stockwell Tube station on 22 July 2005.

Mr de Menezes, 27, was followed by armed and surveillance police as he travelled to Stockwell Tube station, which he is about to enter here.

The Metropolitan Police force denies breaking health and safety laws when its officers shot Mr de Menezes.

Mr de Menezes was followed by several undercover officers, given code names in court. Here, "Ivor" is seen in the background.

Several of the officers burst through the station's ticket barriers in their pursuit of Mr de Menezes.

Mr de Menezes was pursued through the station by officers, marked here as "Ivor" and "Ken".

Police officer "Laurence" drew a gun in the tube station before heading down to the train platforms.

Commuters ran from the platforms after being ordered to leave the area because of the shooting.
