Another 'Man does wrong, is brought to justice' post. Surely it's the rozzers that aren't brought to book that you need to be worrying about?

Anyone else getting bored of DoR's posts?

At first they were amusing, some even interesting. But his continuous posting of 'anti-police' material is starting to get tiring.

Do you know how big this story is?
Do you know how important the accused is?

This is on the front page of all the news services.

No more than I am 'bored' of posts about corrupt MPs, or lenient sentencing for kiddy fiddlers, or AGW etc etc.


There seems to be no 'boredom' of the discussions between, say , LUDO and TURBOBLOKE on climate matters.

Why is highlighting reports of police breaking laws they are paid to uphold so controversial?

From the CPS:


Charging decision regarding Metropolitan Police officer (Jamshid) Ali Dizaei

21/05/2009

The Crown Prosecution Service has today advised the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) that there is sufficient evidence to charge (Jamshid) Ali Dizaei with misconduct in public office and perverting the course of justice in relation to events that took place on Friday 18 July 2008.

Gaon Hart, reviewing lawyer, CPS Special Crime Division said: "These charges relate to an incident in which Mr Dizaei, in his capacity as a police officer, arrested a man on allegations including assault. A decision not to charge that individual was made by the CPS in August 2008."

"Following an investigation by the IPCC, a file was submitted to me in November 2008. I asked the IPCC to undertake further enquiries and I received the results of those inquiries this month."

Notes to Editors

1. The maximum sentence for both misconduct in a public office and perverting the course of justice is life imprisonment.
2. Media enquiries to CPS Press Office on 020 7796 8102 or 8127.

It's not controversial, it's just DoR has a habit of making these threads uninteresting. It's his snide hidden agenda, whatever that may be.

Agreed

See your " agreement" and raise you a YAWN

Ali Dizaei is a Commander in the Met. One of Britain's top coppers.
And he is coloured and been involved in much police reacism controversy in the past.
He is very high profile.

This is a top story, it is already all over the news services.

I am interested in the story but I am frankly bored with you.

[Oakey]

That may be so but I get the feeling you're trying to ram as much anti-police sentiment down our throats as possible in order to make us completely and utterly fed up of the topic and avoid them altogether. That and divert our attention away from other things.

ETA: I wonder if there's a correlation between DoR posting these threads and the release of other, more important news stories?

Coloured as opposed to line art?

Or do you mean purple, lime green etc?

[Dunk76]

I thought we'd established motive yesterday?

Theory is that DoR is Racingdude009 and the persistent anti-Police is to try to divert attention from the latest bit of Westminster Trougher Fraud. Presumably on the basis that as a PPC it's a trough that he would like to be at.

Police malpractice is massively under-reported.
Every police organisation in Britain has a big press department. Their job is to keep the police in line and spin stories in the way that plod want.
Also the police federation will litigate against anyone who says anything critical of a copper. They have a huge multi million fighting fund that they are very willing to spend. They have also lost many high profile cases where they have been defending the undefensible. Police Federation costs in one example of a journalist they were after cost them over a million pounds.
Also as you have seen on this forum the police close ranks and spin against any criticism.

Private individuals have no answer to this onslaught, so the police get away with bad behaviour all the time, because they know that they can.

He is also hated within the MET and it's no surprise he's been targeted.

Where it the proof that malpractice is under reported?

Or is it the fact that the "police close ranks and spin against any criticism on this forum" enough for you?

The fact that an organisation is willing to defend it's members - isn't that part and parcel of what they are there for?

[ExChrispy Porker]

It's the 'all the time' comment that reduces the impact of his posts.
We can all agree that there are wronguns in the police, but they are a tiny minority.

Oh yes http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2008/sep/19/1

Ali Dizaei was well aware of his notoriety as he joked that he put on his stab vest when he went into Scotland Yard.

Flamboyant and controversial, the Iranian-born Muslim bodybuilder has been spied on, bugged, and then wrongly accused and charged - all by his own colleagues.

Early on in his career, Dizaei was singled out as one of the Metropolitan police's fastest-rising young officers, tipped to become the first ethnic minority commissioner. etc etc etc

This, this is what you really want to bring to our attention right?

not that a police officer has been charged with perverting the course of justice but that they've done all this to him. Why not just out that in the OP?
