The four RCMP officers involved in using a Taser on Robert Dziekanski are liars, a lawyer for the government of Poland told a B.C. inquiry into the Polish immigrant's death following several jolts from the stun gun.

Poland wants the inquiry to make findings of wrongdoing against the officers and several other Mounties involved in the later investigation of the October 2007 incident at Vancouver International Airport, Don Rosenbloom told the inquiry on Tuesday.

The four officers conspired to concoct a story to justify their repeated use of the weapon, lied to investigators and continued to lie at the inquiry, Rosenbloom told Commissioner Thomas Braidwood during his final submissions to the inquiry in Vancouver.

"The officers' conduct can be construed as nothing short of an intentional act to subvert the course of justice," the attorney said.

1. criminal behavior in the Mounties is commonplace.

Just another bunch of fascist gangsters working for the state. The days of Sam Steele are long gone.
