Ex-GMP officer BANNED from policing after carrying out 22 unlawful searches for her family
A Greater Manchester Police officer was rumbled after searching the Police National Computer 22 times at the request of her relatives. PC Rukhsar Parvaiz would have been dismissed had she not quit her role last month, GMP's top cop admits.
A disciplinary hearing at GMP's headquarters yesterday was told that by accepting the caution last November, PC Parvaiz 'accepted she had committed a criminal act'. Chief Constable Stephen Watson ruled that her actions amounted to gross misconduct and she would have been dismissed had she not already resigned.The former officer was also added to the College of Policing Barred List. Summing up, Chf Con Watson said he was 'unable to find any mitigation whatsoever'.
"This was not a single occurrence but rather multiple incidents that took place over a calendar year. The misconduct involved a deliberate breach of policy, procedure and instructions that make it abundantly clear that care and respect should always be shown to information on police systems.
