Innocent until proven guilty*

NO! That is how the court system, and therefore the state sees him in regards to punishment and treatment. That does not mean, and has never ever ever ever meant, that being declared not guilty means they are proven to be innocent. Just that there's wasn't evidence beyond a reasonable doubt.

This wasn't a US court... Does that apply on London?

Yes, the UK justice system works on the same principle
