G20 protest pathologist suspended
Dr Freddy Patel, who carried out the first post-mortem examination on Mr Tomlinson, was described by the newspaper seller's family as an "obstacle to the truth".
Dr Patel was suspended from the medical register for three months by the General Medical Council after being found guilty of misconduct in two earlier post-mortems, and showing deficient professional performance in a third.
