IPCC to investigate allegation of drug possession by Devon and Cornwall police officer
The Independent Police Complaints Commission has decided to manage an investigation into a Devon and Cornwall Constabulary police officer arrested on suspicion of possessing a Class A controlled drug.
The 40-year-old detective was arrested in Torquay at 0.40am on 10 July 2010 and the IPCC received a referral from the force on 14 July.
At approximately 11.55pm on 9 July the police were called to the Green Ginger bar in Fleet Walk, Torquay, following the report of a male being detained by door staff in the toilet area of the bar.
The man identified himself to the police officers as a serving officer within the force.
The door staff explained that the man had been found in a toilet cubicle with another man, and that within the cubicle there was an indication drugs had been taken.
He has been bailed until September to allow further enquiries. The other man was also arrested and has since been released without any further action.
IPCC Commissioner Rebecca Marsh said: If proven this is a very serious matter and given the concern the allegation will generate it is right the IPCC is involved to provide reassurance to the public. I have decided that the IPCC will manage an investigation into this matter by officers from the force’s professional standards department."
