A former officer has been found to have committed gross misconduct after he lied in a police statement in Bethnal Green.
In October 2019, the Central East Command Unit's George Glassey provided a "positive identification statement" for a burglary suspect in Bethnal Green Police Station, claiming to have recognised him in custody. 
A conviction had to be quashed when it was discovered this statement was false.
Glassey was jailed for four months on April 9 after pleading guilty to perverting the course of justice at Southwark Crown Court. 
A special case hearing on May 18 found Glassey had breached the Met's standards of professional behaviour in respect of honesty and integrity and discreditable conduct, with the allegations of gross misconduct proven.
