Quoted in the Daily Mail -26 April 2013

Sophie Khan, a lawyer who specialises in representing Taser victims, said the death was deeply saddening. ‘Police Taser policy clearly states that using one where there is flammable liquid is prohibited,’ she added.
 
‘We do not know the facts but it is possible this tragedy could have been avoided if the officers had followed standard procedure.
‘It is another incident which highlights potentially inappropriate use of Taser which is growing as a weapon of choice among British police forces.’
