DOZENS of Scots police officers have been arrested for domestic abuse offences over the past two years, figures show. Data obtained by The Herald shows 31 officers were investigated for emotional or physical abuse towards a partner over a period of 28 months - more than one a month. Of those investigated, 27 were charged by Police Scotland. The data covers arrests from January 1 2019 to April 27 this year, taking in successive lockdowns, a time when offences are said to have escalated. Experts said victims of police crimes can experience added difficulties in reporting crimes. A major published in 2018 by the The Bureau of Investigative Journalism found police partner abusers had exploited their position to avoid arrest.
