High-ranking Brazilian officials are to be in London to hear the findings of a British inquiry into the 2005 shooting death of a Brazilian electrician by London police.

"The mission will hear the decision to be read Monday by the Crown Prosecution Service," Brazil's foreign ministry said on Sunday in a statement.

The delegation was headed by the director of the department of foreign Brazilian communities, Palacio de Itamaraty, the foreign ministry said.

Jean Charles de Menezes, 27, was shot dead at an underground station in south London on July 22, 2005, by police who suspected he was an Islamist terrorist carrying explosives for an attack.

His killing came a day after an alleged failed attempt to attack London's transport network.

Two weeks earlier, four Islamist suicide bombers had killed themselves and 52 others when they detonated explosives on three London subway trains and a bus.

Instead of murder or manslaughter charges for the police officers linked to de Menezes's fatal shooting, the investigation report is expected to announce a prosecution of London's Metropolitan Police under health and safety laws for failing its "duty of care" to protect the electrician, according to three London newspapers -- The Times, The Guardian and The Independent.

The victim's family reiterated their calls for officers involved in the shooting to be prosecuted when they spoke to two British Sunday newspapers from their home in Gonzaga, southeast Brazil.

Maria and Matozinhos de Menezes were angered by the reports that no one will face criminal charges.

Maria de Menezes, 60, was quoted Sunday by the Mail as saying: "My family will not accept that decision. It is a total cover-up, which is what we had suspected was going to happen ever since we met your Independent Police Complaints Commission.

"They may think that because they are the First World and we live thousands of miles away in Gonzaga -- the Third World -- that we are poor, stupid people. We are poor but we are not stupid."
