Operation Midland: A Shocking Report

Sir Richard Henriques does not mince his words in his article in today’s Daily Mail. If there is one thing which must strike a chill to the bone of a free democratic society, it is a police force whose integrity is open to question. At any level and in any circumstances. His detailed account not only casts doubt upon the Met’s objectivity and candour, this distinguished retired judge asserts the law has been broken. Moreover the conflicting exoneration of the processes and officers involved in the dreadful saga of operation Midland casts doubt on the investigative competence of the IOPC. There is a nagging suspicion of a whitewash. All worrying stuff.
