A police officer cleared of killing Ian Tomlinson at London's G20 protests has been sacked with immediate effect after being found guilty of gross misconduct.
Mr Tomlinson's widow walked out of the hearing, calling it a "whitewash".
Deputy Assistant Commissioner Maxine de Brunner confirmed PC Harwood would keep his police pension as he had not been convicted of a criminal offence.
