A legal case has collapsed against four men charged over the shooting of an equal rights campaigner in south London.
Mother of two, Sasha Johnson remains in hospital after being hit in the head during a silent disco in the garden of a house in Peckham in May.
She suffered "catastrophic" and permanent injuries and remains in hospital.
The 28 year old is a founding member of the Taking The Initiative Party and had been a prominent figure in the Black Lives Matter movement last summer.
The prosecution's said it was offering no evidence against the four men - aged between 19 and 25 - who all denied conspiracy to murder.
The prosecutor made clear that there was nothing to suggest Ms Johnson was targeted because of her anti-racism campaigning and involvement in the BLM movement.
