CAMPAIGNERS are demanding that Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick address shocking reports that hundreds of officers accused of sexual assault have been spared disciplinary action.
Only one in every 18 Met officers accused of sexual offences is subject to formal action, according to an investigation by the Independent.
Forty-three officers out of 562 accused of sexual assault between 2012 and June 2 2018 subsequently faced proceedings. Of those, 31 had formal action taken against them. The remaining 12 received only informal “management action” notices, while 85 cases are still pending.
The accusations came from 313 members of the public and 249 fellow police officers.
The figures, obtained through freedom of information requests, also suggest that the number of police accused of sexual assault is increasing, jumping 65 per cent between 2012 and 2017.
