I request copies of the following documents:
Any removal notices issued in relation to any of the following videos:
- Video depicting the killing of Iryna Zarutska
- Video depicting the killing of Charlie Kirk

I object to the redaction of names and personal information of public servants on relevance grounds.
Please release the responsive documents through administrative access if possible.
If the documents are not available administratively, please treat this as a formal request under the Freedom of Information Act 1982.
Yours faithfully,
John Smith
