    The entire system failed this young lady miserably, this report was made last year November and this officer long after recommendations was made to arrest and charged he was left to continue working and eventually abscond.
    And not because he has resigned means that he should be left alone, he will continue if not sorted after.

    and they want to give police more powers. police molesting school girls was part of the reason for the tint law. police beating up woman is part of the reason for some abuse laws. police stealing and doing drugs is part reason for narco and money laundering laws. ang you want to give them more power. #nastiness

      It’s persons like you who continue to have young people being molested. Why did he abscond from the territory if this has no truth to it.
      So is the young lady lying about what he did to her? Well he should be here to defend himself not you being a computer screen. You make the dog sick

      now i heard that this officer is the main witness in a high profile case that is coming up, so if we get rid of this officer, what do we have, NO CASE.

        so, that should not excuse his actions; him being a witness to a high-profile case or not. Justice is justice, the law should be upheld at all times.

    Don't mind the talk, RVIPF! Just weed dem out and tell us about it. Don't hide it. Find dem wherever dem is and hang dem out to dry. Like the CoP say, 80 percent of his officers are good. The 20% are shameful. They have to come out!!

      I hope you name them, shame them, and charge them too! I been hearing about alot of cover-ups in the police force. Police committing offenses that the general public would be arrested for, but are swept under the rug. No one is above the law!

    I guess it will be bad publicity all over the world if they expose them.
    I guess they're ABOVE the law, as normal citizens' names are published.
