The man mistakenly shot dead by police in the belief that he was linked to a series of attempted bomb attacks has been named by police.
Jean Charles de Menezes, a 27-year-old Brazilian, was killed by officers on Friday as he tried to board a Tube train at Stockwell, south London.
Detectives later established that he was not connected to attempts to blow up three Underground trains and a bus in the capital the day before.
The Metropolitan Police said an inquest would be opened and adjourned into his death, which they described as a "tragedy".
The shooting happened at 10am when armed plain clothes police officers shot Mr de Menezes as he tried to board a train at the underground station.
He had emerged from a nearby house that was under surveillance because of a suspected link to Thursday's attempted bomb attacks. His clothing and behaviour added to the officers' suspicions.
He caught a bus to Stockwell Tube where he was challenged by officers, who told him to stop. The man then bolted down an escalator, according to witnesses.
It appears he tried to board a train before being shot five times in the head by an officer with an automatic pistol.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Ian Blair had said on Friday that the shooting was "directly linked" to anti-terror operations.
However, Scotland Yard said: "We are now satisfied that he (the man) was not connected with the incidents of Thursday, July 21, 2005."
