UK Athletics Limited and the body’s former head of sport have been charged with manslaughter over the death of Paralympian Abdullah Hayayei.
The athlete died after a metal cage fell on him at Newham Leisure Centre in July 2011.
The Crown Prosecution Service said UK Athletics Ltd has been charged with corporate manslaughter and a Health and Safety at Work Act offence.
Davies, 77, has been charged with gross negligence manslaughter and a health and safety offence.
United Arab Emirates athlete Mr Hayayei, 36, died after being struck by a metal pole in the incident, while he was training ahead of the 2017 World Para Athletics Championships in London.
Malcolm McHaffie, head of the CPS Special Crime Division, said: “The Crown Prosecution Service reminds everyone that criminal proceedings are active and both UK Athletics Ltd and Davies have the right to a fair trial.
“It is extremely important that there be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings.”

She has since appeared to move on from the midfielderGettyShe is now reportedly dating Young Miko[/caption]

The midfielder was at the time in a relationship with Argentine singer Tini after splitting with longtime partner Camila Homs.
However, Tini, a huge star in Spain and Latin America, and De Paul went their separate ways two summers ago.
The 27-year-old pop star has since been romantically linked with rapper Young Miko.
The Puerto Rican, also 27, played for her country’s Under-20 women’s team before switching careers to music.
A former right-back or defensive midfielder, her full name is Victoria Ramirez de Arellano Cardona.
The one-time tattoo artist came out as gay a number of years ago.
Now a multiple award-winning singer, she has worked with top Latin American music stars including J Balvin and Bad Bunny.
Tini, born Martina Stoessel in Buenos Aires, posted pictures on social media of herself with Miko.
Those living near airports had stiffer and thicker heart muscles that contracted and expanded less easily and were less efficient at pumping blood around the body.
This was especially the case for those exposed to higher aircraft noise at night, which may be because it ruins sleep.
Separate studies have shown that these types of heart abnormalities could result in up to a four-fold increased risk of a heart event when compared with people without these heart abnormalities.
Earlier research led by the University of Leicester estimated that about five per cent of adults in England were exposed to aircraft noise exceeding 50 decibels during the day or night.
The senior author of the UCL study Dr Gaby Captur, consultant cardiologist at the Royal Free Hospital, London, said: “Our study is observational so we cannot say with certainty that high levels of aircraft noise caused these differences in heart structure and function.
“However, our findings add to a growing body of evidence that aircraft noise can adversely affect heart health and our health more generally.
“Concerted efforts from Government and industry are needed to reduce our exposure to aircraft noise and mitigate its impact on the health of millions of people who live close to airports or under flight paths.”
Previous studies linked exposure to high levels of aircraft noise to obesity, too, which can lead to heart problems.
Professor James Leiper, associate medical director at the British Heart Foundation, said: “For most of us, a plane is seen as a ticket to some well-deserved rest and relaxation.
“But this innovative study reveals the potential invisible impact for those living close to some of our biggest travel hubs.
“While observational studies like this can’t prove cause and effect, these findings add to previous research showing the damaging impact of noise pollution on our heart health.
“Further research will be needed to investigate the longer-term effects of aircraft noise on the health of those with the highest exposure.”

How to reduce your risk of heart attacks and stroke
You can reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke with many of the same methods.
Heart attacks and strokes, althouh affecting different organs of the body, are both what we call cardiovascular events.
Both arise from similar underlying conditions, such as atherosclerosis —a buildup of fatty deposits in the arteries.
According to the American Heart Association, the risk factors for heart attacks and strokes are largely the same: high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, obesity, physical inactivity, and diabetes.
Therefore, addressing these risk factors can simultaneously reduce the risk of both conditions.
Here are ways you can prevent the two:
Healthy diet
More fruit and veg: The DASH, which emphasises fruit, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, has been shown to reduce blood pressure and improve heart health.
Less fats: Too much saturated and trans fats can raise cholesterol levels and increase the risk of atherosclerosis. Go for healthier fats like those found in olive oil, nuts, and avocados.
Limit salt: High salt intake is linked to high blood pressure, a major risk factor for both heart attack and stroke. The NHS recommends no more than 6g of salt per day for adults.
Fibre: Foods high in soluble fibre, such as oats and beans, can help lower cholesterol levels.
Exercise
Walking, running, cycling, swimming – whatever you like, do it!
Aerobic exercise can strengthen the heart and improve circulation.
The NHS advises at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity each week.
Strength training exercises can help control weight, improve cholesterol levels, and reduce blood pressure. It is recommended twice a week by the NHS.
Manage blood pressure
Healthy diet and exercise can help keep your blood pressure in check.
But it is worth monitoring it yourself after the age of 40, at least, when the NHS invites adults for a check-up every five years.
High blood pressure often has no symptoms but significantly increases the risk of heart attack and stroke.
Quit smoking
One of the best ways to quit smoking is to use resources provided by NHS Smokefree. Support groups, medications, and other tools to help quit smoking such as vapes could be what you need to kick the habit for good – and it’s free.
Limit booze
Excessive alcohol consumption can increase blood pressure and contribute to weight gain, which can snowball and become a heart health risk.
The NHS recommends not regularly drinking more than 14 units of alcohol per week.
2 weeks agoNews PlusComments Off on I’m the PlayStation Vita’s biggest fan and I’m glad Freedom Wars is out for everyone
I HAVE always loved the PlayStation Vita, but the vast majority of the handheld’s library is already available on other platforms.
Freedom Wars is one of the last games that was still a Vita exclusive until Bandai Namco announced Freedom Wars Remastered.
Bandai NamcoFreedom Wars is all about using your Thorn to grapple and take down giant mechs[/caption]
Bandai NamcoYou have a million year prison sentence and you are being watched at all times[/caption]
Bandai NamcoWhen you take on a mission and collect resources, years will be removed from your sentence[/caption]
Set in a dystopian future where resources are scarce, you play as a Sinner, someone born with a 1million year prison sentence.
Sinners must grapple up to the top of giant mechs and sever off parts to collect resources to donate to the greater good.
Every dangerous mission you take part in and every item you donate will shave a few hundred years off your sentence.
Freedom Wars was innovative at the time it was released, with the introduction of the Thorn, a grapple that helps you quickly explore the verticality of the maps.
You can also use it to travel quickly across the world, close the distance between you and an enemy, and hang onto a mech until you’re shaken off.
The game is over 10 years old at this point and was created with the PlayStation Vita’s hardware restrictions in mind.
One of the Vita’s biggest restrictions is the size, and Freedom Wars reuses just a few enemy types and battle arenas, but this would need to be tackled in a remake rather than a remaster.
There are a number of quality-of-life improvements in the remaster, including auto-save, quick travel, shinier graphics, and faster movement.
However, like the lack of variety, the biggest issue with Freedom Wars remains the limitations of the original.
Tutorials are text boxes with a large amount of text that the average gamer will likely skip through.
Freedom Wars has a lot of systems like severing, drag downs, weapon crafting, modules and abilities that are not obvious when playing.
Many people think that the difficulty curves sharply and you need to grind in order to finish it, but if you use the game mechanics as intended you should have no problems.
Gamers have been conditioned over the years to play games like cover-based shooters, but in Freedom Wars you’re supposed to get up close and personal.
However, earlier missions would need to be restructured to emphasise this and improve on the difficulty issue.
Freedom Wars suffers from its limitations, and while the remaster improves on the original in many ways, a remake would be needed to fix everything.
It is still one of the most innovative big-budget games made, and getting it all on a 4GB cart is a work of magic.
I’d love to see a new Freedom Wars game with all of the resources game developers now have at their disposal.
Whether that happens or not depends on players and how much love they show for this new version, so go play it for the greater good.
