Three Metropolitan Police officers who made light of a serious sexual assault allegation and made inappropriate and offensive jokes in a WhatsApp group chat have been given final written warnings.
Pcs Alexander Higgs and Charlie Cano and a third officer, known only as Officer A, were found to have committed gross misconduct in the messages on the social media platform where they made “discriminatory and derogatory comments” about members of the public, women, Muslims and people from other minority groups.
