Dismissal of two policemen by ACT Police commissioner
The Commissioner Mr R A Wilson dismissed two constables yesterday after an inquiry into misconduct allegations. The charges were not listed in the initial statement, and an earlier inquiry report failed to confirm certain grounds. Mrs Edwards and Mrs Clive Edwards alleged inappropriate behaviour at a house, but the report suggested gaps in evidence. The two constables may appeal to the Police Appeal Tribunal under disciplinary provisions.
