An Islamic extremist who murdered soldier Lee Rigby near his London barracks is seeking £20,000 compensation from the taxpayer.
The five officers accused by Adebolajo were suspended from work but later told they had no case to answer.
Adebolajo and fellow killer Michael Adebowale were jailed after running down the 22-year-old soldier with a car as he walked towards Woolwich barracks in May 2013, before hacking him to death.
The soldier’s mother Lynn Rigby claimed any payout would be “nothing more than blood money”.
She told the paper: “This is the last person on earth who deserves compensation.
“You can replace broken teeth but you can’t bring back the life of my treasured boy.”
“It hurts so much that he just won’t go away and leave us to pick up the pieces of our broken lives,” she said.
