HN81 'Dave Hagan'
Overview

Below is an excerpt from HN81's profile last updated in 2018. You can find the entire profile and links to other related articles here: https://powerbase.info/index.php/N81 HN81 is due to give evidence in late 2025/early 2026 alongside those who he spied upon. A updated profile will appear here.

HN81 'Dave Hagan' is the cover name of a Special Demonstration Squad (SDS)  officer (1996-2002). His manager was HN10 Bob Lambert. He infiltrated a political group in London involved in the campaigns around the Stephen Lawrence murder. It has since emerged that the Lawrence family was not the only black justice campaign that was spied upon.

Dave Hagan came to public attention when he was mentioned in the 2014 Stephen Lawrence Independent Review - commonly known as the Ellison Review. Among other things, the Review looked into allegations of SDS undercover whistleblower Peter Francis who claimed to have been instructed to find information to smear the Lawrence family and those around them.
