A public inquiry into police handling of a racially-motivated murder was suspended Monday after militant black-rights campaigners disrupted the hearing.
Members of the Nation of Islam group, wearing dark suits and red bow ties, burst into the chamber where the inquiry was being held to confront officers whom they accuse of bungling the investigation into the 1993 fatal stabbing of a black teenager, Stephen Lawrence.
Police earlier scuffled with people trying to force their way into the crowded chamber.
The protest was the latest dramatic twist in a case that has sparked an anguished debate in Britain about attitudes toward race.
Five young men were charged but never convicted in the southeast suburban London murder at a bus stop.
