Stephen has questioned the outcome of the investigation into the death of Belly Mujinga. Ms Mujinga died on 5 April, a few weeks after a 57-year-old man spat at her at Victoria Station, where she worked. The man claimed to have coronavirus.
British Transport Police interviewed a 57-year-old man but said "…there was insufficient evidence to support a prosecution based upon the allegation that the man spat deliberately on Mrs Mujinga or said that he had the virus".
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has now been asked to review the evidence after more than a million people signed a petition in support of Ms Mujinga. BTP said it requested the review in light of the "wider public interest".
Prior the announcement of the review, Stephen wrote to the Chief Executive of Govia Thameslink, the Commissioner of Transport for London and the Chief Constable of British Transport Police about the case.
