4 days agoFourth Charing Cross Met Police officer fired after BBC Panorama film
A Metropolitan Police officer was dismissed for gross misconduct after being filmed boasting about excessive force and giving a false account.
Three Metropolitan Police officers who worked at Charing Cross Police Station have been sacked after their shocking conduct was revealed in a BBC Panorama programme. Sgt Joseph McIlvenny, PC Martin Borg and PC Phillip Neilson were found guilty of gross misconduct on Thursday after their appalling behaviour was revealed in footage captured by an undercover reporter. The footage, which was aired in a documentary earlier this month, exposed anti-Muslim, racist and discriminatory comments and actions by officers based at the central London police station.
