More than 80,000 complaints were made against police in England and Wales last year, a rise of eight per cent on the previous 12 months, official figures show.
Watchdog the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) said more than half the cases, 55 per cent, were about delivery of duties and service; 20 per cent were about police powers, policies and procedures; and 13 per cent about individual behaviours.
