Maybe he feared being sent back to Brazil.

You're right, they trailed him for two miles, including on a bus, but decided to execute him on a tube train filled with members of the public, just a short while after the terrible attacks that had also happened on the London underground system.
I know the roads that they followed him down very well, and they are wide, and fairly sparsely populated for London, certainly compared with a busy tube station.
I thought at the time the whole thing stank, and still do.
I'm still waiting for evidence that the dead man was actually working here illegally. I've never seen any proof in the press, nor saw it brought up in evidence at the inquest.
