World Cup Security Beach
Pavlos Joseph, the disgruntled England Fan evaded FIFA and English FA Security and confronted David Beckham IN the England Dressing Room. Moments before he gained access Princes William and Harry had been in there.
He is now appearing in a South African Magistrates Court however there seems to be little mentioned about the fact that he evaded what should have been the most secure of areas. Had he confronted Beckham when the team were on the move from, say from the Dressing Room to the team bus then that would not be unusual as long as the group were safe and he had heckled from a distance. In the dressing room is unacceptable. That should have been the most secure of areas. England have boasted that they have ex Special Forces doing Security for them. It would be interesting to know if they were involved in the Dressing Room security.
The so called heads of security should be brought to account as on the face of this Pavlos Joseph does not seem to be anyone with security knowledge who could try and evade what should have been the tightest of security.
Many Companies and organisations say they deliver high end security but the reality is very different. This is exactly the reason why we, SPP Solutions are getting involved in high end security provision based upon our attention to detail and uncompromising strive for quality we have been approached by a high end client who has asked if we can provide small well trained and motivated security teams. Watch this space.
First Corporate Manslaughter case
The countrys first corporate manslaughter case starts at Bristol Crown Court on the 23 Feb 2010.
Cotswold Geotechnical Holdings, and its director Peter Eaton, faced Stroud Magistrates Court in Sept 2009 for gross negligence manslaughter over the death of a young geologist in Gloucestershire in September of 2008.
The landmark charge was recorded against the company, the court heard, because of the way in which the organisations activities were managed or organised, caused the death of a person, namely Alexander James Wright by gross negligence, which amounted to a gross breach of a relevant duty of care owed to the deceased, contrary to section 1 of the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007.
The company faces an unlimited fine and Mr Eaton, who is charged with gross negligence manslaughter under common law, faces a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
The prosecution is the first brought under the Corporate Manslaughter Act 2007, which aimed to made it easier for firms to be brought to justice over the death of their employees.
Alexander Wright was taking soil samples from a development site near Stroud when the pit he was working in collapsed, killing him.
