so much for "wearing weather inappropriate clothing (heavy, bulky coat on a day when the temp. was 71F)"
It is a denim Jacket.
The documents, seemingly from the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) investigation into the shooting, contradict first reports which suggested Mr de Menezes did not hurdle the barrier at Stockwell tube station and was not wearing a padded jacket that could have concealed a bomb.
They also suggest Mr de Menezes had walked into Stockwell Tube station, picked up a free newspaper, walked through ticket barriers, had started to run when he saw a train arriving and was sitting down in a train when he was shot.

Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death
