A Welsh police force has announced that it's currently investigating more than two dozen misconduct claims relating to 24 of its staff members. North Wales Police said 13 of those cases relate to violence against women and girls and include sexual misconduct and domestic abuse.
The news follows the publishing of a report prepared by the force in light of the recent conviction and sentencing of David Carrick for multiple crimes of rape, violence against women and coercive behaviour whilst he was a serving Metropolitan Police officer.
The 49-year-old pleaded guilty to 49 offences spanning a 20-year period, including 24 counts of rape. As a result he was given a minimum jail sentence of 30 years earlier this month.
