Celtic fan police officer who suffered sectarian abuse at Hunterston awarded £44k

A POLICE officer has been awarded £44,000 after his Celtic mug was defaced with offensive graffiti about the Pope.

Police Sergeant Paul McCue was subjected to religious harassment while working for the Civil Nuclear Constabulary unit at Hunterston power station, having previously been harassed twice.

A tribunal found that Sgt McCue found a document with "UDA no surrender" written on a piece of paper on his pigeonhole in June 2020, with the same message left inside his jacket in August of that year.
